The distance between the points A to B is 899.9 feet. After rounding off the nearest integer we get 900 feet as the final answer.
Given we know that CD is perpendicular to AD.
The distance between CD is 139 feet.
As from points A the boat's crew measure the angle of elevation to the beacon as 6°
therefore, m∠A = 6°
Another time the angle of elevation is measured from point B which is 19°.
therefore, m∠DBC = 19°
tan 19° = CD/BD
BD = CD/tan19°
BD = 136/tan 19°
now for tan 6° = CD/AD (tangent is opposite over adjacent)
AD = CD/tan 6°
AD = 136/tan 6°
AB = AD ₋ BD
AB = 136/tan 6° ₋ 136/tan 19°
AB = 1295.2 ₋ 395.3
AB = 900 feet
hence the distance from point A to B is 900 feet.

Answer:
x intercept=2, y intercept= -6
Step-by-step explanation:
X Intercept is when the graph crosses the X Axis, point of intersection. To find it, just convert into standard form and solve for x by getting rid of y.
The Y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis, point of intersection. It is the constant in the slope-intercept form.
