Answer:

14 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To create a linear equation that represents an airplane flying at an altitude of 30,100 feet, descending 2,150 feet per minute, that represents how long it will take for the airplane to touch down, proceed as follows:

2,150X = 30,100

X = 30,100 / 2,150

X = 14

Thus, the plane will take 14 minutes to reach the ground, descending 2,150 feet per minute from 30,100 feet.

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence

Tn = a+(n-1)d

= -85 +(601-1) 1/6

= -85 + 600/6

= -85 + 100

= 15

A person sights a boat from 235 feet above sea-level as shown. If the angle of depression from the man to the boat is 21 , then
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

B = 612.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- The elevation of person, H = 235 ft

- The angle of depression, θ = 21°

- We will sketch a right angle triangle with Height (H), and Base (B) : the boat's distance to the edge of the cliff and the angle (θ) between B and the direct line of sight distance.

- We will use trigonometric ratios to determine the distance between boat and the edge of the cliff, using tangent function.

                             tan ( θ ) = H / B

                             B = H / tan ( θ )

                             B = 235 / tan ( 21 )

                             B = 612.2 ft
