A surveyor measures the angle of elevation to a point on a mountain to be 12 degrees. The point on the mountain is horizontally

5 miles away from the surveyor. What is the vertical change in elevation from the point where the surveyor is standing to the point on the mountain? (Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a mile.)

From the right triangle formed, the adjacent side to the angle of elevation is 5 miles and the vertical change in elevation is the opposite side. From the trigonometric function, tangent of an angle,
                             tan 12° = x / 5 miles
The value of x from the equation is 1.06 miles. Thus, the vertical change in elevation is 1.06 miles.

What are the domain restrictions of the expression g2−7g+10g3−6g2+8g ? Select each correct answer.
Sauron [17]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an expression

f(g)=\frac{g^2-7g+10}{g^3-6g^2+8g}

We have to find domain restriction of the given function.

f(g)=\frac{(g-5)(g-2)}{g(g-4)(g-2)}

Domain restriction means : It is that value of x when substitute in function then  function will  not defined.

It means it is that values which makes denominator zero.

From given function we can see that

When substitute g=0 then it makes denominator zero.

Hence, the function is not defined at g=0

Substitute g=4

Then, it makes denominator zero.

Hence, function is not defined  at g=4

Substitute g=2

Then,it  makes denominator zero.

Hence, function is not defined  at g=2

Therefore, the function is defined for all values of g except g=0, g=2 and g=4

Explain why each non-zero integer has two square roots but only one cube root.
lilavasa [31]

if we have a number like say hmm 4, and we say hmmm √4 is ±2, it simply means, that if we multiply that number twice by itself, we get what's inside the root, we get the 4, so (+2)(+2) = 4, and (-2)(-2) = 4, recall that <u>minus times minus = plus</u>.

so, any when we're referring to even roots like \bf \sqrt[2]{~~},\sqrt[4]{~~},\sqrt[6]{~~}...., the positive number, that can multiply itself an even amount of times, will produce a valid value, BUT the negative number that multiply itself an even amount of times, will also produce a valid value.

now, that's is not true for odd roots like \bf \sqrt[3]{~~},\sqrt[5]{~~},\sqrt[7]{~~}...., because the multiplication of the negative number will not produce a valid value, let's put two examples on that.


\bf \sqrt[3]{27}\implies \sqrt[3]{3^3}\implies 3\qquad because\qquad (3)(3)(3)=27&#10;\\\\\\&#10;however\qquad (-3)(-3)(-3)\ne 27~\hspace{8em}(-3)(-3)(-3)=-27&#10;\\\\[-0.35em]&#10;\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\&#10;\sqrt[3]{-125}\implies \sqrt[3]{-5^3}\implies -5\qquad because\qquad (-5)(-5)(-5)=-125&#10;\\\\\\&#10;however\qquad (5)(5)(5)\ne -125~\hspace{10em}(5)(5)(5)=125


so, when the root is an odd root, you will always get only one number that will produce the radicand.

If $400 is invested at the rate of 6% for one year, what will be the total value of the investment (the amount)?
viva [34]
Hmm... Let's see..

Alrighty: $400= 100% (the whole amount of money). 1% of that money= 400/100. If $400 invests once in one year, that is... 424 dollars. 

Anyone out there who is looking for monthly payment, you invest 400 dollars with interest, the answer is 4934.22

Hope that helps ya!
