Why is this false:

Mathematics
1 answer:
Luba_88 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

It is false that, if the national economy shrank at an annual rate of 9% per year for three consecutive years then the economy shrank by 27% over the 3-year period, because this percentage does not follow a linear path, but on the contrary, it is calculated exponentially: 9% of each year is calculated on the rest that remained after discounting 9% the previous year.

Thus, if the national economy has a value of 100, after three years it will not have a value of 79, but a value of 75.35, as it arises from the following calculation:

100 x 0.91 ^ 3 = X

100 x 0.753571 = X

75.35 = X

A person sights a boat from 235 feet above sea-level as shown. If the angle of depression from the man to the boat is 21 , then
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

B = 612.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- The elevation of person, H = 235 ft

- The angle of depression, θ = 21°

- We will sketch a right angle triangle with Height (H), and Base (B) : the boat's distance to the edge of the cliff and the angle (θ) between B and the direct line of sight distance.

- We will use trigonometric ratios to determine the distance between boat and the edge of the cliff, using tangent function.

                             tan ( θ ) = H / B

                             B = H / tan ( θ )

                             B = 235 / tan ( 21 )

                             B = 612.2 ft

(3cosx-4sinx) + (3sinx+4cosx) = 5
Ksenya-84 [330]
(3 cos x-4 sin x)+(3sin x+4 cos x)=5
(3cos x+4cos x)+(-4sin x+3 sin x)=5
7 cos x-sin x=5
7cos x=5+sin x
(7 cos x)²=(5+sinx)²
49 cos²x=25+10 sinx+sin²x
49(1-sin²x)=25+10 sinx+sin²x
49-49sin²x=25+10sinx+sin²x
50 sin² x+10sinx-24=0

Sin x=[-10⁺₋√(100+4800)]/100=(-10⁺₋70)/100
We have two possible solutions:
sinx =(-10-70)/100=-0.8
x=sin⁻¹ (-0.8)=-53.13º      (360º-53.13º=306.87)

sinx=(-10+70)/100=0.6
x=sin⁻¹ 0.6=36.87º

The solutions when  0≤x≤360º are:  36.87º and 306.87º.
