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

12) Twenty cubic feet of marble can weigh 3400 pounds, plus or minus 100
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Let's suppose that one cubic foot of marble is x.

20x = 3400

But because the weight has a range of +-100, then 20x is between 3300 and 3500. Write it like this:

3300<20x<3500

Divide by 20:

165<x<175

The meaning of this is that one cubic foot of marble weight between 165 and 175 pounds

The following relation is a function: {(-8, – 9), (-4, 5), (1, 5), (4, 7)}
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The following relation is a function. When graphed, it passes the vertical line test, and you don't go across any two points at the same time. So therefore, it is a function. Another easy way to determine if the relation is a function is by taking a look at the x-coordinates. If any x-coordinates are the same, then it's not a function. If all x-coordinates are the same, then it's a function.

Hope this helps. Please mark brainliest.

Suppose that the concentration of a bacteria sample is 60 comma 000 bacteria per milliliter. If the concentration triples in 4 ​
Elodia [21]

Answer:

1.932 days (or approximatelly 1 day, 22 hours and 22 minutes)

Step-by-step explanation:

The inicial concentration is 60,000, and this concentration triples every 4 days, so we can write the equation:

P = Po * r^t

where P is the final concentration after t periods of 4 days, Po is the inicial concentration and r is the ratio that the concentration increases (r = 3)

Then, we have that:

102000 = 60000 * 3^t

3^t = 102/60 = 1.7

log(3^t) = log(1.7)

t*log(3) = log(1.7)

t = log(1.7)/log(3) = 0.483

so the number of days that will take is 4*0.483 = 1.932 days (or approximatelly 1 day, 22 hours and 22 minutes)
