The new function moved up by 8 units from the original.
The only difference in the functions is the y-intercept. The slope remained the same (
), but the y-intercept went up by 8, meaning the function moved up 8 units.
See the attached image for a graph of both functions. The new function is the solid blue line.
Answer:
bc is included between ab and ac
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1353 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The cliff height and the distance from its base to the boat form the legs of a right triangle. The cliff height is the leg opposite the elevation angle, and the distance to the boat is the leg adjacent. Given these two legs of the triangle, the tangent relation seems useful:
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
We want to find the cliff height (opposite), so we can multiply this equation by Adjacent:
Opposite = Adjacent×Tan
cliff height = (2994 ft)(tan(24°19')) ≈ 1353 ft
The cliff is about 1353 feet high.
