Answer:

45°

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram for this question has been attached to this response. Please check.

<em>The angle of elevation is the angle between a horizontal line from a viewer and the line of sight to an object being viewed which is above the horizontal line.</em>

From the diagram;

θ is the angle of elevation

x = height of the tree

y = length of the shadow of the tree = x

Therefore,

tanθ = \frac{x}{y}           [Remember that y = x? Then substitute into the equation]

tanθ = \frac{x}{x}

tanθ = 1

θ = tan⁻¹(1)

θ = 45°

Therefore, the angle of elevation is 45°

<h2>It represents that , the amount of money in the bank account is $1680 after 50 months.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , the amount of money in a bank account can be represented by the equation A(m) = 30m +180, where A(m) is measured in dollar and m is measured in month.

When A(m) = 1680

1680 = 30m +180

⇔30m = 1680 -180

⇔30m = 1500

⇔m= \frac{1500}{30}

⇔ m = 50

It represents that , the amount of money in the bank account is $1680 after 50 months.

Answer:

The vertex of the quadratic equation is the point (4,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The figure show a vertical parabola open downward

The vertex represent the maximum point of the graph

Looking at the graph

The maximum point of the graph is (4,2)

therefore

The vertex of the quadratic equation is the point (4,2)
