S=16t^2
if t=3
So you would plug it in
16(3)^2
Then you multipy
16*3^2
=144
It is easier if you use a calculator just type in ti 30 calculator online that should help
Answer:
I agree that this question can be confusing:
Apparently point A and point B must be on the same straight line (measured from the light house or the question would be nonsensical)
tan 13 = H / DA where H is height of lighthouse
tan 8 = H / DB tangent measured from point B
tan 13 / tan 8 = DB / DA
DB = .2309 / .1405 * 1279 = 2101 ft
DB - DA = 2101 - 1279 = 822.0 ft
N = -3
5n + n + 6 = -18 - 2n
6n + 6 = -18 - 2n
-6 to both sides
6n = -24 - 2n
+2n to both sides
8n = -24
divide 8 to both sides
n = -3
Write an equation based on the problem in the terms of x and solve the equation
first number + second number + third number = 240
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 240
3x + 3 = 240
3x = 240 - 3
3x = 237
x = 237/3
x = 79
The smallest number, x, is equal to 79
Find the next two numbers
the second number = x + 1
the second number = 79 + 1
the second number = 80
the third number = x + 2
the third number = 79 + 2
the third number = 81
ANSWER: The three numbers are 79, 80, 81
