Answer:

east 95 km
south 89 km

Step-by-step explanation:

SOH CAH TOA can remind you of the relationships between triangle measures. The distance east is the side of the right triangle that is opposite the angle, so is related to the hypotenuse (ship's travel distance) by the sine function.

sin(43°) = (travel distance)/(distance east)

So, ...

(distance east) = (travel distance)·sin(43°)

Likewise, the cosine function can be used to find the distance south.

Then we have ...

east = (130 km)sin(43°) ≈ 95 km

south = (130 km)cos(43°) ≈ 89 km

What are the real zeros of the function g(x) = x3 + 2x2 − x − 2?

Nat2105 [25]

Upon a slight rearrangement this problem gets a lot simpler to see.

x^3-x+2x^2-2=0 now factor 1st and 2nd pair of terms...

x(x^2-1)+2(x^2-1)=0

(x+2)(x^2-1)=0 now the second factor is a "difference of square" of the form:

(a^2-b^2) which always factors to (a+b)(a-b), in this case:

(x+2)(x+1)(x-1)=0

So g(x) has three real zero when x={-2, -1, 1}

From 1960 to 1980 , the consumer price index (cpi) increased from 29.6 to 82.4. If a frozen chicken pie cost $0.28 in 1960 and t

CPI in 1960 = 29.6

CPI in 1980 = 82.4

Growth (%) in CPI = $\frac{\text{CPI in 1980 - CPI in 1960}}{\text{CPI in 1960}}$ × 100
