Answer:

θ  = 30^{0}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the vertical height of the mountain is 800 feet, and the distance from the top to its base is 1600 feet. Let the angle of elevation be represented by θ, applying the required trigonometric function;

Sin θ = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

Sin θ = \frac{800}{1600}

        = 0.5

θ = Sin^{-1} 0.5

θ  = 30^{0}

Thus, the angle of elevation from the base to the top of the mountain is 30^{0}.

mariarad [96]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can eliminate A and D since it is obviously only 36 months.

Note that the question asks what can be interpreted from the <em>range</em> of the graph.

The range is the number of users in thousands (per month) (as can be seen from the side title).

While B is technically correct, it wrongly interprets the range. C is the best choice.

The correct answer is C.

Alik [6]

Answer:

  23/21

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is computed from ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

For the given points, the slope is ...

  m = (26 -3)/(18-(-3)) = 23/21

The slope of the trend line is 23/21.

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of ages= 40

Let the sons age be x

Fathers age = 3 times x or ,3x

So 3x+x=40

4x= 40

x= 40/4

= 10

Therefore the fathers age = 3x

= 3*10

= 30
