Answer:

when n=1

= -2(1-7) = 12

when n=2

= -2(2-7) = 10

when n=3

= -2(3-7) = 8

when n=4

= -2(4-7) = 6

when n=5

= -2(5-7) = 4

The Emerson First National Bank is lending you money to buy a new car.

Before an agreement will be reached for any Organization to lend someone money there have to be something like a collateral.

The agreement will in it's document state that there must be a form of a reliability to hold on, such that if something's happen to the car, or you don't meet the paying up time, or something happens to you,they will see something to hold on.

The angles of depression of two ships from the top of the light house are 45° and 30° towards east. If the ships are 200 m apart

azamat

Answer:

273 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

See image attached for the diagram I used to represent this scenario.

The distance between the ships, at angles 30 and 45, is 200 meters. The distance between the left ship and the lighthouse is x meters.

We can use trigonometric ratios to solve this problem. We can use the tangent ratio $\big{(} \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} \big{)}$ to create an equation with the two angles.

$\displaystyle \text{tan(45)} = \frac{h}{x}$
$\displaystyle \text{tan(30)} = \frac{h}{x+200} }$

Let's take these two equations and solve for x in both of them.

<h2> $\textbf{Equation I}$ </h2>

$\displaystyle \text{tan(45)} = \frac{h}{x}$

tan(45) = 1, so we can rewrite this equation.

$\displaystyle 1=\frac{h}{x}$

Multiply x to both sides of the equation.

$\displaystyle x = h$

<h2> $\textbf{Equation II}$ </h2>

$\displaystyle \text{tan(30)} = \frac{h}{x+200} }$

Multiply x + 200 to both sides and divide h by tan(30).

$\displaystyle \text{x + 200} = \frac{h}{\text{tan (30)}}$

Subtract 200 from both sides of the equation.

$\displaystyle \text{x} = \frac{h}{\text{tan (30)}} - 200$

Simplify h/tan(30).

$x=\sqrt{3}h - 200$

<h2> $\textbf{Equation I = Equation II}$ </h2>

Take Equation I and Equation II and set them equal to each other.

$h=\sqrt{3}h-200$

Subtract √3 h from both sides of the equation.

$h-\sqrt{3}h=-200$

Factor h from the left side of the equation.

$h(1-\sqrt{3}) =-200$

Divide both sides of the equation by 1 - √3.

$\displaystyle h=\frac{-200}{1-\sqrt{3} }$

Rationalize the denominator by multiplying the numerator and denominator by the conjugate.

$\displaystyle h=\frac{-200}{1-\sqrt{3} } \big{(} \frac{1+\sqrt{3} }{1+\sqrt{3}} \big{)}$
$\displaystyle h=\frac{-200+200\sqrt{3} }{1-3}$
$\displaystyle h =\frac{-200+200\sqrt{3} }{-2}$

Simplify this equation.

$\displaystyle h=100+100\sqrt{3}$
$h=273.20508075$

The height of the lighthouse is about 273 meters.
