<u>Answer</u>


1.6 miles


<u>Explanation.</u>

Am trying to interpret this question and am finding that you want to find the vertical change in elevation which you are calling S.

Hoping my interpretation is correct, this is how you solve it.


You are going to use the trigonometric ratio, tangent.

TanФ = opposite/adjacent


tan 15° = S/6


S = 6×tan15°

= 6 × 0.267949192

= 1.607695155


Answer

S = 1.6 miles

Evaluate A2 for A = -3. -9 -6 6 9
schepotkina [342]
Evaluate A² for A = -3.

(-3)² = (-3) * (-3) = 9

Your answer is 9.

If the question is, however, evaluate A2, which is 2A, for A = -3, then the answer is:

2A = 2(-3) = -6.

Write the average of y numbers. Is 22 the numbers 20, 17, 24, 18, 29 and x. find x
Elena L [17]
22 is the average of the numbers 20,17,24,18,29, and x is what I guess the qusetion is

count them
6 numbers

(20+17+24+18+29+x)/6=22
(108+x)/6=22
times both sides by6 to clear fraction
108+x=132
minus 108 from both sides
x=24

What function is shown by the graph below?
Airida [17]

Answer:

The function f(x)=\sqrt{x+2}  is shown by the graph below ⇒ 2nd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>To find the right function chose two points from the graph and substitute the x-coordinate of each point in the function to find the y-coordinate, if they are the same with the corresponding y-coordinates of the points, then the function is shown by the graph</em>

From the figure:

The curve passes through points (-2 , 0) and (2 , 2)

∵  f(x)=\sqrt{x-2}

∵ x = -2

- Substitute x by -2

∴ f(-2)=\sqrt{-2-2}

∴ f(-2)=\sqrt{-4} ⇒ it is impossible no square root for (-) number

∴ f(x)=\sqrt{x-2} is not the function shown by the graph

∵  f(x)=\sqrt{x+2}

∵ x = -2

- Substitute x by -2

∴ f(-2)=\sqrt{-2+2}

∴ f(-2)=\sqrt{0}

∴ f(-2) = 0 ⇒ same as the y-coordinate of x = -2

∵ x = 2

- Substitute x by 2

∴ f(2)=\sqrt{2+2}

∴ f(2)=\sqrt{4}

∴ f(2) = 2 ⇒ same as the y-coordinate of x = 2

∴ The function f(x)=\sqrt{x+2} is shown by the graph below
