Profit for August: x
Profit for September: x - 22%x
Total Profit for August & September: $689,000

x + x - 22% x = 689,000

2x - .22x = 689,000
1.78x = 689,000
x = 689,000/1.78
x = 387,078.65

August Profits: $387,078.65
September Profits: 387,078.65 - (22%)(387,078.65) = 387,078.65 - 85,157.30 = 301,921.35

August Profits: $387,078.65

September Profits
$301,921.35

Find the angle of depression from the top of a lighthouse, 260 feet above water to a ship that's 270 feet offshore?
expeople1 [14]

Answer: OPTION C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe the triangle ABC attached.

Notice that the angle of depression is represented with \alpha.

Knowing that the top of a lighthouse is 260 feet above water and the ship is 270 feet offshore, you can find the value of  \alpha by using arctangent:

\alpha= arctan(\frac{opposite}{adjacent})

In this case you can identify that:

opposite=260\\adjacent=270

Therefore, substuting values into  \alpha= arctan(\frac{opposite}{adjacent}), you get that the angle of depression is:

 \alpha= arctan(\frac{260}{270})\\\\\alpha=43.92\°
