Answer:

<h3>8.5 degrees</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up will give a right angles triangle;

Given

The height of the ramp (opposite) = 6 foot

distance away along the ground = 40 feet (adjacent)

Required

Angle of depression theta

Using the TOA identity;

tan theta = opposite/adjacent

tan theta = 6/40

tan theta = 0.15

theta = tan^-1{0.15}

theta =8.53 degrees

hence the angle of depression to nearest tenth of a degree is 89.5 degrees

Which of the following best describes the graph above?
Maru [420]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a relation is any set of ordered pairs, but a function is when there is only one y value for x value.

So, basically, if a graph is a function, it is a relation as well.

Let’s check if this is a function.

We can use the vertical line test- if we draw a vertical line through any point on the graph and it only intersects one point, it is a function

In our case, it passes the vertical line test.

Therefore, it is both a function and a relation, which corresponds to letter C.

Hope this helps! :)

What is the simplest form of the radical expression?
WARRIOR [948]
<span>Expressing in simplest radical form just means simplifying a radical so that there are no more square roots, cube roots, 4th roots, etc left to find. It also means removing any radicals in the denominator of a fraction.</span>

When using substitution, you want to solve an equation for one variable that doesn’t make the equation worse to work with.

The general idea is that you want to find a variable that has a coefficient of 1 or -1.

In 2.5x - 7y = 7.5, both variables have “bad” coefficients.

In 6.2x - y = 1, the y has a coefficient of -1. That’s where you want to start.
