Answer:
B) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. <em>It is either 3 or 4</em>, since those are only two angles comparing the lighthouse and the boat.
2. The angle of depression is noted below the horizontal and above the actual line, and out of 3 and 4, <em>4 is the only angle that is below its corresponding horizontal</em>.
So, the angle of depression from the lighthouse to the boat is 4.
A function

is periodic if there is some constant

such that

for all

in the domain of

. Then

is the "period" of

.
Example:
If

, then we have

, and so

is periodic with period

.
It gets a bit more complicated for a function like yours. We're looking for

such that

Expanding on the left, you have

and

It follows that the following must be satisfied:

The first two equations are satisfied whenever

, or more generally, when

and

(i.e. any multiple of 4).
The second two are satisfied whenever

, and more generally when

with

(any multiple of 10/7).
It then follows that all four equations will be satisfied whenever the two sets above intersect. This happens when

is any common multiple of 4 and 10/7. The least positive one would be 20, which means the period for your function is 20.
Let's verify:


More generally, it can be shown that

is periodic with period

.
Answer:
Dimensions of the rug = 13 ft × 26 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimensions of the room = 21 ft × 34 ft
Area of the room = 21 × 34 = 714 ft²
Cynthia wants to leave a uniform strip of floor around the rug.
Let the width of the rug = x ft
Then the dimensions of the rug will be = (21- 2x)ft × (34 - 2x)ft
Area of the rug = (21 - 2x)×(34 - 2x) square feet
338 = (21 - 2x)×(34 - 2x)
338 = 714 - 68x - 42x + 4x²
4x² - 110x + 714 - 338 = 0
4x² - 110x + 376 = 0
2x² - 55x + 188 = 0
2x² - 47x - 8x + 188 = 0
x(2x - 47) - 8(x - 47) = 0
(x - 4)(2x - 47) = 0
x = 4, 
For x = 23.5 area of the rug will be negative.
Therefore, x = 4 ft will be the width of the rug.
Dimensions of the rug will be 13 ft × 26 ft.
Answer:
8/24 is correct. However, I would simplify 8/24 down to 1/3, since most teachers want you to do that.
Answer:
5 and -4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
10/2= 5 -9/2 = -4.5
