For the equation F(x) = ax² + bx + c we have:
- maximum value if a<0
- minimum value if a>0
F(x) = -3x² + 18x + 3 ⇒ a = -3, b = 18
a < 0 ⇒ the function has a maximum value
Quadratic function has the maximum value (or minimum) at vertex of its parabola.
The maximum value is k at x=h where: and k = F(h)
Therefore:
<h3> The function has a maximum value of 30 at x = 3</h3>Answer: the distance of the boat from the foot of the lighthouse is 290.5 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The right angle triangle ABC representing the scenario is shown in the attached photo.
Angle A is alternate to the angle of depression, hence, they are the same.
The height of the lighthouse represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle. The distance, x of the boat from the foot of the lighthouse represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.
To determine x, we would apply
the tangent trigonometric ratio.
Tan θ, = opposite side/adjacent side. Therefore,
Tan 11.1 = 57/x
x = 57/Tan 11.1 = 57/0.1962
x = 290.5 feet to the nearest tenth.
