The distance of the ship from the shore is given by:
tan θ=opposite/adjacent
θ=28°
adjacent=x
opposite=360 m

substituting the values in our equation we get:
tan 28=360/x
solving for x we get
x=360/tan 28
x=677.06 m

F(x)=20-x^2+8x<br> what are the minimum and maximum points and the axis of symmetry?
-Dominant- [34]
Vertex aka max or min point is found by -b/2a in form
f(x)=ax^2+bx+c
f(x)=-1x^2+8x+20
vertex x value is -8/(2)(-1)=-8/-2=4
input back to find y value
f(4)=-(4^2)+8*4+20
f(4)=-16+32+20
f(4)=36
max (since the graph opens down) is (4,36)
axis of symmetry is the x coordinate


max is (4,36)
axis of symmetrry is x=4

The sum of two numbers is 62, and their difference is 12. What are the numbers?
Ede4ka [16]
X + y = 62 

x - y = 12

Move x over so y is alone in one of the above equations,

y = 62-x

Now substitte in y

x-(62-x) = 12

x - 62 + x = 12

2x = 12 + 62

2x/2 = 74/2

x = 37

Now for y sub in the x!

x + y = 62

(37) + y = 62

y = 62 - 37

y = 25.

So 25 + 37 =62

and 37 - 25 = 12


Method 2 :
Start by stacking the 2 original equations from above,

x+y=62
x-y=12
You want to "cancel" out one of the variable so,

x+y=62
+  +  =  +
x - y =12

So then you add,

2x = 74

2x / 2 = 74 / 2

x = 37.

Now you can once again sub it back into the original equation to solve for y,

x+y=62
(37)+y=62
y=62-37
y=25

Hope this helps!
