Answer:

$Height\approx 1.35\ miles$

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of elevation $=25\textdegree$

It is $3.2\ miles$ away from the point.

If we imagine a right triangle having an angle $25\textdegree$ .

Hypotenuse $=3.2$ , Opposite=Height from sea level $(h)$

$\sin 25=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\\\\sin 25=\frac{h}{3.2}\\\\h=3.2\times \sin 25\\\\h=3.2\times 0.4226\\\\h=1.3524\approx 1.35\ miles$

Which statement best describes f(x)= -2 √x-7 +1 –6 is in the domain of f(x) but not in the range of f(x). –6 is not in the domai

Archy [21]

Answer:

B. -6 does not belong to the domain but belongs to the range of f(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function, $f(x)=-2\sqrt{x-7}+1$ .

So, the domain of the function is obtained when $x-7\geq 0$ i.e. $x\geq 7$

That is, the domain is {x | x≥ 7}.

Now as we have,

$x\geq 7$ → $x-7\geq 0$ → $\sqrt{x-7} \geq 0$ → $-2\sqrt{x-7} \leq 0$ → $-2\sqrt{x-7}+1 \leq 1$ .

That is, $f(x)\leq 1$

Thus, the range of the function f(x) is {y | y≤ 1}.

Thus, we can see that,

-6 does not belong to the domain but belongs to the range of f(x).

Write an equation of the line. Express the answer using either the general form or the slope-intercept form of the equation of

Georgia [21]

Answer:

y = x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a line is y = mx+b

m is the slope

b is the y intercept

Get the slope

Using the coordinate points (4, 0) and (0, -4)

m = -4-0/0-4

m = -4/-4

m = 1

Since the line cuts the y axis at y = -4, the y-intercept b = -4

Get the equation;

Since y = mx+b

y = 1x + (-4)

y = x - 4

This gives the required equation
