<span>Let </span>

<span>X=  the altitude of the lighthouse above sea level= 80 ft</span>

 A = the angle of depression 

Y= the distance of the boat from the lighthouse= 400 ft

 tan A=X/Y------------------ > 80/400=0.2

arctan (0.2)=11.31 degree

 The answer is the angle of depression is 11 degree

Geometry solve for x​
gulaghasi [49]

Answer: b

Step-by-step explanation: the parallel proportionality theorem states that “if two or more parallel lines are intersected by two transversals, the parallel lines divide the transversals proportionally.” Therefore, you make a ratio and solve:

(4/2)=(6/x) and if you solve, x=3

now, 6+3=9, so 2x-11=9

if you solve for that, x=10

The family of functions y = ce^{-2x} + e^{-x} is solution of the equation y' + 2y = e^{-x}. Find the constant c which defines th
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

c = 1190.2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following solution:

y(x) = ce^{-2x} + e^{-x}

We want to find the value of x that satisfies the following condition:

y(3) = 3.

This means that when x = 3, y = 3. So

y(x) = ce^{-2x} + e^{-x}

y(3) = ce^{-2*3} + e^{-3}

3 = ce^{-6} + e^{-3}

3 = ce^{-6} + 0.0498

ce^{-6} = 2.9502

c = \frac{2.9502}{e^{-6}}

c = 1190.2

What is the domain of f(x)=-5x+4
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

f(x) = -5x + 4

Domain refers to the values of x that would result to  a defined value of y. Since the given f(x) is a linear function, then all the values of x would give a corresponding value of y. So, the domain of f(x)=-5x+4 are all real numbers.

Or, plot the given equation to check.

The graph of f(x)=-5x+4 is shown below.

Since the graph is a straight line and can be extended continuously on both ends,  this indicates that every values of x, there is a corresponding value of y.

Hence, the domain of the given function are all real numbers.Step-by-step explanation:
