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

What is the discriminant of 3x^2 - 10 = -2?
Tatiana [17]
The formula for the discriminant is b^2-4ac. The formula you wote is in the form of 
ax^2+c=0, so first, you need to bring that -2 to the left. When you do that, you get (the original equation would be ax^2+bx+c but you have no bx.)

3x^2-8

So, since there's no b, it would be
b^2-4ac
0^2-4(3)(-8
-12 x -8

Work out the volume of the solid shape<br><br> Give your answers in terms of pi please
kirill [66]

*The complete question is in the picture attached below.

Answer:

756πcm³

Step-by-step Explanation:

The volume of the solid shape = volume of cone + volume of the hemisphere.

==> 270πcm³ + ½(4/3*π*r³)

To calculate the volume of the hemisphere, we need to get the radius of the hemisphere = the radius of the cone.

Since volume of cone = 270πcm³, we can find r using the formula for the volume of cone.

==> Volume of cone = ⅓πr²h

⅓*π*r²*10 = 270π

⅓*10*r²(π) = 270 (π)

10/3 * r² = 270

r² = 270 * ³/10

r² = 81

r = √81

r = 9 cm

Thus, volume of hemisphere = ½(4/3*π*r³)

==> Volume of hemisphere = ½(⁴/3 * π * 9³)

= ½(972π)

Volume of hemisphere = 486πcm³

Volume of the solid shape

= volume of cone + volume of the hemisphere.

==> 270πcm³ + 486πcm³

= 756πcm³
