Option 1: x<-6 is the right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequalities are solved by isolating the variable on left side of the inequality.

Given

-2x-4>8

Adding 4 on both sides

-2x-4+4>8+4\\-2x>12

Dividing by 2 on both sides

\frac{-2x}{2}>\frac{12}{2}\\-x>6

The variable should not be negative.

Multiplying both sides by -1

-x>6\\=> x

Hence,

Option 1: x<-6 is the right answer

Jon is in a raft 100m from the base of a 54m cliff. What is the angle of depression from the he top of the cliff to the raft? Le
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

28.4 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram attached

Height of the cliff, AB=54 m

Distance of the raft to the base of the cliff, AC=100m

We want to determine the angle of depression from the top of the cliff to the raft. This is angle OBA.

\angle OBA = \angle BAC $ (Alternate Angles)\\Therefore, in the right triangle ABC\\\tan A =\dfrac{BC}{AC}\\ \tan A =\dfrac{54}{100}\\\tan A =0.54\\A=\arctan 0.54\\A=28.4^\circ$ (to the nearest tenth)

The angle of depression from the top of the cliff to the raft is 28.4 degrees correct to the nearest tenth.
