Answer:

Between (-6,0) and (-5,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

When it crosses the x axis, it's an x-intercept. To find the x-intercept, set y (aka f(x)) to zero. The solutions to the equation are approximately 3.36 and - 5.36. Since you're finding the negative x-intercept, you only need the negative solution - 5.36. This is in between (-6,0) and (-5,0).

Initially a ship and a submarine are stationary at sea level, positioned 1.78km apart. The submarine then manoeuvres to position
poizon [28]
I’m assuming ‘dives further’ means to go directly down

the angle of elevation of the ship from the submarine is equal to the angle of depression of the submarine from the ship, if we assume the sea level is perpendicular to ‘directly down’.

let both of these angles to be = $ when the submarine is at A and ¥ when the submarine is at B (excuse the lack of easily accessible variables as keys)

then this become a simple trig problem:

A)

Let O be the position of of the ship, and C be the original position of the submarine.

therefore, not considering direction

|OC| = 1.78km = 1780m

|CA| = 45m

these are the adjacent and opposite sides of a right angled triangle.

But tan($) = opp/adj = |CA|/|OC| = 45/1780

therefore $ = arctan(45/1780) which is roughly 1.45 degrees,

B)

similarly, noting that |CB| = |CA| + |AB| = 45 + 62 = 107m


tan(¥) = 107/1780

¥ = arctan(107/1780) which is roughly 3.44 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

factors of 10;  5 and 2

factors of 15; 5 and 3

factors of 25; 5 and 5

calculate lcm so, 5x5x3x2 =150

150 mins = 2hr 30mins

7am+2hr30min = 9:30 am
