Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) D/280 = tan(90 - 6)
D = 280tan84 = 2,664 ft
b) D/280 = tan(90 - 16)
D = 280tan74 = 976 ft
ship speed = (2664 - 976) / 43 = 39.2 ft/s
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we would like to solve the following equation for x:

to do so isolate
to right hand side and change its sign which yields:

simplify Substraction:

get rid of only x:

simplify addition of the left hand side:

divide both sides by q+p Which yields:

cross multiplication:

distribute:

isolate -pq to the left hand side and change its sign:

rearrange it to standard form:

now notice we end up with a <u>quadratic</u><u> equation</u> therefore to solve so we can consider <u>factoring</u><u> </u><u>method</u><u> </u><u> </u>to use so
factor out x:

factor out q:

group:

by <em>Zero</em><em> product</em><em> </em><em>property</em> we obtain:

cancel out p from the first equation and q from the second equation which yields:

and we are done!

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a quadratic equation in standard form
ax² + bx + c = 0 ( a ≠ 0 )
Then the discriminant is
Δ = b² - 4ac
• If b² - 4ac > 0 then 2 real irrational roots
• If b² - 4ac > 0 and a perfect square then 2 real rational roots
• If b² - 4ac = 0 then 1 real double root
• If b² - 4ac < 0 then 2 complex roots
Given
x² + 3x - 7 = 0 ← in standard form
with a = 1, b = 3, c = - 7 , then
b² - 4ac
= 3² - (4 × 1 × - 7) = 9 + 28 = 37
Since b² - 4ac > 0 then 2 real irrational roots
-7x + 12 is not an equiv. expression because one of the - signs in the original expression has been changed to +.
