Answer:
The distance from the base of the statue to the ship is 771.60 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer the attached figure
Height of statue AB= 250 feet
The tourist sees a ship coming into the harbor and measures the angle of depression as 18°.
So, ∠ACB = 18°
We are supposed to find the distance from the base of the statue to the ship i.e. BC
In ΔABC





BC=771.60 ft
Hence the distance from the base of the statue to the ship is 771.60 ft
Answer:
c(x) = –8x^2 + 3x – 5 is a quadratic
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic function involves the 2nd power of x: x^2, and may (or may not) involve the 1st and zeroth power of x.
a(x) = -2x^3 is not a quadratic because of that exponent 3; in a quadratic, the highest power is always 2.
b(x) = 5x^3 + 8x^2 + 3 is not a quadratic for the same reason that a(x) is not a quadratic.
c(x) = –8x^2 + 3x – 5 is a quadratic: the highest power of x is x^2, the other powers are x^1 and x^0.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
B and C aren't correct
5 to the power of 1/6. Use simple exponent rules.... square root= X^(1/2) and cube root = X^(1/3)
