Tan 2° = x / 1 mile,   where x is the vertical change
0.03492 = x / 1 mile
x = 1 mile · 0.03429 = 0.03492 miles
1 mile = 5,280 feet
0.03492 · 5,280 = 184.38 ft
Answer: The vertical change is 184.38 feet

Solve the equation a=m-n for the variable n.
amid [387]
Our objective is to isolate n one side of the equation. The steps are as follows...

a=m-n
(Add n to both sides)
a+n=m-n+n
(The -n and +n cancel out, on the right side of the equation)
a+n=m
(Now subtract a from both sides)
a+n-a=m+a
(The +a and -a cancel out, on the right side of the equation)
n=m+a

Write a polynomial of least degree with rational coefficients, a leading coefficient of 1, and zeros at 3 and sqr root 7. Expand
Tresset [83]

Answer:

(x-3)(x^2-7) = x^3 -3x^2 -7x + 21

just change the sign of the root and put x in front of it, then multiply the factors all together

(x-3)(x-sqr7)(x+sqr7)    roots come in conjugate pairs to eliminate irrational coefficients

(x-sqr7)(x+sqr7) = x^2-7.  similar to (a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2

Where is (0,19) located? Quadrant I Quadrant II Quadrant III Quadrant IV X-axis Y-axis
12345 [234]
Let P(a, b) be a point on the coordinate plane. Then the following hold:


i) If a>0, b>0 then P is in the I.Quadrant.

ii) If a<0, b>0 then P is in the II.Quadrant.

iii) If a<0, b<0 then P is in the III.Quadrant.

iv) If a>0, b<0 then P is in the IV.Quadrant.

v) If a=0 and b is positive or negative, then P is on the y-axis.

vi) If b=0 and a is positive or negative, then P is on the x-axis.


Since we have: a=0, and 19 positive, then this point is on the y-axis.


Answer: y-axis
