The Y-intercept is -4 because it's located on the y-axis you can remember that the y-axis is up and down the x-axis is side to side.
Answer:
The ship travels approximately 10.261 meters to the East.
Step-by-step explanation:
At first we introduce a graphical description of the statement as an attachment below. Let suppose that bearing is respect to the North-direction, then the change in position in the East direction is modelled by the following Trigonometric formula:
(1)
Where:
- Distance travelled by the ship, measured in kilometers.
- Bearing angle, measured in sexagesimal degrees.
- Distance component in the east direction, measured in kilometers.
If we know that
and
, then the distance in the East direction is:


The ship travels approximately 10.261 meters to the East.
For Question 3,
15 ?
__ = ____
120 100
120?=1500
1500/120=12.5
?=12.5%
Question 4
I think it is $462.80
First translate the English phrase "Four times the sum of a number and 15 is at least 120" into a mathematical inequality.
"Four times..." means we're multiplying something by 4.
"... the sum of a number and 15..." means we're adding an unknown and 15 and then multiplying the result by 4.
"... is at least 120" means when we substitute the unknown for a value, in order for that value to be in the solution set, it can only be less than or equal to 120.
So, the resulting inequality is 4(x + 15) ≤ 120.
Simplify the inequality.
4(x + 15) ≤ 120
4x + 60 ≤ 120 <-- Using the distributive property
4x ≤ 60 <-- Subtract both sides by 60
x ≤ 15 <-- Divide both sides by 4
Now that we have the inequality in a simplified form, we can easily see that in order to be in the solution set, the variable x can be no bigger than 15.
In interval notation it would look something like this:
[15, ∞)
In set builder notation it would look something like this:
{x | x ∈ R, x ≤ 15}
It is read as "the set of all x, such that x is a member of the real numbers and x is less than or equal to 15".
