D - the shortest distance from the ship to the shore.
d / ( 17 - x ) = tan 32° = 0.62487
d / x = tan 53° = 1.32704
d = 0.62487 ( 17 - x )
d = 1.32704 x
0.62487 ( 17 - x ) = 1.32704 x
10.62279 - 0.62487 x = 1.32704 x
x = 10.62279 : 1.95191
x = 5.44226 miles
d = 5.44226 · 1.32704
Answer:
d = 7.222  miles

Find the slope of ther line that goes through the points (-9,-4) and (-3,-6)
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

slope = - \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 9, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, - 6)

m = \frac{-6+4}{-3+9} = \frac{-2}{6} = - \frac{1}{3}

Find the value of f(–3) and g(3) if f(x) = –6x + 3 and g(x) = 3x + 21x–3.
ryzh [129]

Answer:

f(-3) = 21

g(3) = 69

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the following functions;

f(x) = –6x + 3

g(x) = 3x + 21x–3.

To find f(-3) , we simply substitute x = -3 in the function of f(x);

f(-3) = -6(-3) + 3

      = 21

To find g(3) , substitute x = 3 in the function of g(x);

g(3) = 3(3) +21(3) - 3

      = 69
