Answer:

722 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Tan(22.9) = 305/base

Base = 305/tan(22.9)

Base = 722.036124

To the nearest foot, 722 feet

Answer:

is at a distance of 722 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the angle that forms between the water and the imaginary line between the ship and the tip of the statue

we have the statue height that would be the opposite leg to our angle and we want to know the distance of the ship to the statue that would be the adjacent leg

we see that it has (angle, adjacent, opposite)

well to start we have to know the relationship between angles, legas and the hypotenuse

a: adjacent

o: opposite

h: hypotenuse

sin α = o/h

cos α= a/h

tan α = o/a

it's the tangent

tan α = o/a

we replace the values ​​and solve

tan α = o/a

tan 22.9 = 305/a

a = 305/tan22.9

a = 305/0.4224

a = 722

is at a distance of 722 feet

Consider the following data concerning the demand (y) and price (x) of a consumer product the least squares line is found to be
Anastasy [175]

The value of B1 shows a fall in demand as price rises by a unit. The point prediction is given as y = 306,560.8

<h3>How to solve the question using the intercept</h3>

The regression equation shows that y= 306,619-27.71.x

b1 = -27.71

The interpretation for b1 is that if the price of this good is increased by 1, then the demand for the good would fall by about 27.71.

<h3>The point prediction for demand</h3>

The regression line equation is given as

y= 306,619-27.71.x

when x which is price is = 2.10

Then the value of y would be:

y = 306,619 - 27.71*2.10

y = 306,560.8

c. a 95% C1 for B1 is given as:

1.96 * 27.71.

= 54.31

What is the 38th term of the arithmetic sequence of 21, 14, 7,..
kodGreya [7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

First term (a) = 21

common difference (d) = 14-21= -7

general equation for nth term = a+(n-1)d

The 38th term of the AP= 21+(38-1)(-7)

= 21+(37)(-7)

= 21 −259= −238

Write down an (in)equality which describes the solid ball of radius 3 centered at (7,1,−1). It should have a form like x2+y2+(z−
masya89 [10]

Answer:

(x-7)^2+(y-1)^2+(z+1)^2-9\le 0

Step-by-step explanation:

A ball is the solid inside a surface which is a sphere.

The equation of a sphere has the form:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2+(z-s)^2= r^2

Where (h,k,s) is the center and r is the radius.

When we plug the given center (7,1,-1) and radius 3 we get:

(x-7)^2+(y-1)^2+(z+1)^2= 3^2

Then we turn this into an inequality: Since the ball is inside the surface we must use the \le symbol.

(x-7)^2+(y-1)^2+(z+1)^2\le 9

Then we just subtract 9 from both sides to get:

(x-7)^2+(y-1)^2+(z+1)^2-9\le 0
