Answer:
≈ 33°
Step-by-step explanation:
So, first, you can draw a visual. Refer to the image attached below:
Using this info, you can use trigonometric ratios. Recall that:
tangent = opposite side/adjacent side
sine = opposite side/ hypotenuse
cosine = adjacent side/hypotenuse
You can clearly see that you have an opposite side and a given hypotenuse. This means we'll be using sine.
So:
However, we're not trying to find sinX, we're trying to find X.
So we would have to use inverse sine, which would then be:
Put this into your calculator, and:
X ≈ 33.05573115...
Remember that c is the initial height. Since we the rocket is in a 99-foot cliff, c=99. Also, we know that the velocity of the rocket is 122 ft/s; therefore v=122
Lets replace the values into the the vertical motion formula to get:
Notice that the rocket hits the ground at the bottom of the cliff, which means that the final height is 99-foot bellow its original position; therefore, our final height will be h=-99
Lets replace this into our equation to get:
Now we can apply the quadratic formula
where a=-16, b=122, and c=198
or
or
or
Since the time can't be negative, we can conclude that the rocket hits the ground after 9 seconds.
36 feet + 9 feet
= 45 feet
You are correct! The distance from where Debbie and Andy are standing to the coral reef is 45 feet in total.
Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete, as the diagram of coordinates of the three triangles are not given.
A general explanation is as follows:
First, record the coordinates of the corresponding points of the three triangles.
For instance; In triangles ABC, DEF and GHI; A, D and G are corresponding points.
Now, assume the coordinates are:
Point D is 4 points to the right of A;
i.e.
Hence, ABC will be moved 4 units right to lie on DEF
Similarly, point G is 3 units down of A
i.e.
Hence, ABC will be moved 3 units down to lie on GHI.

Answer:
maximum difference is 38 at x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
This is nicely solved by a graphing calculator, which can plot the difference between the functions. The attached shows the maximum difference on the given interval is 38 at x = -3.

Ordinarily, the distance between curves is measured vertically. Here that means you're interested in finding the stationary points of the difference between the functions, along with that difference at the ends of the interval. The maximum difference magnitude is what you're interested in.
h(x) = g(x) -f(x) = (2x³ +5x² -15x) -(x³ +3x² -2) = x³ +2x² -15x +2
Then the derivative is ...
h'(x) = 3x² +4x -15 = (x +3)(3x -5)
This has zeros (stationary points) at x = -3 and x = 5/3. The values of h(x) of concern are those at x=-5, -3, 5/3, 3. These are shown in the attached table.
The maximum difference between f(x) and g(x) is 38 at x = -3.
