A large nest of recently hatched bald eagles is located at the top of the Eiffel Tower (which is 324 meters tall) and is attract

ing much attention from the many visitors to the city of Paris. A tourist is standing at ground level, 54 meters across from the Eiffel Square, aiming her binoculars at the nest. At what angle should she set her binoculars in order to see the next? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a degree.

Answer:

  80.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable trig function is the tangent.

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

In this scenario, the side opposite the angle is the tower height, 324 m. The side adjacent is the distance to the tower, 54 m. Then the angle α is related by ...

  tan(α) = 324/54

The value of the angle with this tangent is found using the arctangent function:

  α = arctan(324/54) ≈ 80.5°

She should set her binoculars to 80.5°.

Mila [183]
First account
interest = 6/12 × 5.25% × 4,000
interest = 1/2 × 5.25/100 × 4,000
interest = 1/2 × 210
interest = 105 dollars

Second account
interest = 6/12 × 6% × 2,000
interest = 1/2 × 6/100 × 2,000
interest = 1/2 × 120
interest = 60 dollars

After 6 months, the first account will have earned more interest than the second account

Which graph represents the function f(x) = |x + 3|?
Sophie [7]
Answer: (B)
Explanation: If you are unsure about where to start, you could always plot some numbers down until you see a general pattern.

But a more intuitive way is to determine what happens during each transformation.
A regular y = |x| will have its vertex at the origin, because nothing is changed for a y = |x| graph. We have a ray that is reflected at the origin about the y-axis.

Now, let's explore the different transformations for an absolute value graph by taking a y = |x + h| graph.
What happens to the graph?
Well, we have shifted the graph -h units, just like a normal trigonometric, linear, or even parabolic graph. That is, we have shifted the graph h units to its negative side (to the left).

What about the y = |x| + h graph?
Well, like a parabola, we shift it h units upwards, and if h is negative, we shift it h units downwards.

So, if you understand what each transformation does, then you would be able to identify the changes in the shape's location.
