0 km = 16

1km = 16 - 5,6 = 10,4

2km = 10,4 - 5,6 = 4,8

3km = 4,8 - 5,6 = -0,8

4km = -0,8 - 5,6 = -6,4

5km = -6,4 - 5,6 = -12

To find the perimeter, we must add together the length of each side.

The tick mark on the lines means they are equal, so that means we have two lines that are equal to 10

26 + 10 + 35 + 5 + 10 + (38 - 10) = 114"

A lighthouse keeper has a 10 degrees angle of depression between the horizontal light beam and the line of sight from the ship.

Andrei [34K]

107.75m
This is a trigonometric ratio problem. the angle of depression (10) is opposite the height (19m) and the distance is adjacent to the distance (x). opposite ad adjacent sides to the angle is a tangent problem.
$tan \theta = \frac{opp}{adj}$
plus in values, we know.
$tan (10) = \frac{19}{x}$
switch tan(10) and x using the products property.
$x = \frac{19}{tan (10)}$
plug in to calulator to get answer
x=107.75

What is the y-intercept and x-intercept for the equation -3x - 4 = -5y - 8

BARSIC [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

=> -3x - 4 = -5y - 8

=> 8 - 4 = 3x - 5y

=> 4 = 3x + (-5)y

=> 1 = (3x/4) + (-5y/4)

=> 1 = x/(4/3) + y/(-4/5)

Compare this with x/a + y/b = 1 where a and b are x & y intercepts.

Here,

x intercept = 4/3

y intercept = -4/5
