We\ know:\\\\\sin^2x+\cos^2x=1\to\cos^2x=1-\sin^2x\to\cos x=\sqrt{1-\sin^2x}\\\\\sin x=0.42\\subtitute\\\\\cos x=\sqrt{1-0.42^2}=\sqrt{1-0.1764}=\sqrt{0.8236}\approx0.91

For a sequence defined by f(1)=13 and 2f(n-1)+(n-2), which of the following is the value of f(4)
densk [106]
Given that:
f(1)=13 and 2f(n-1)+(n-2)
then:
f(4) will be found as follows:
f(2)=2f(2-1)=2f(1)=2*13=26
f(3)=2f(3-1)+(3-2)=2f(2)+1=2*26+1=53
f(4)=2f(4-1)+(4-2)=2f(3)+(4-2)=2(53)+2=108

Thus:
Answer:(3) 108

Need help with this trigonometry word problem
creativ13 [48]

The distance between the tree and the tower is 30√3m.

Justification:

<u>Let the situation be in a right angleABC form as shown in attached figure</u>.

<u>Given the height of the tower is 30m and the angle of depression to the base of the tree measure 30°</u>.

So, In ΔABC

tanθ = p/b

tan30° = 30/BC

1/√3 = 30/BC

BC = 30√3m.

Researches notice a grey whale cruising at a depth of 233 feet below sea level. It rises 73 feet and then comes up another 40 fe
musickatia [10]

Answer:

The whale is at a depth 120 feet below the sea level.

Step-by-step explanation:

A grey whale is cruising at a depth of 233 feet below sea level. The depth below the sea level has the negative position, thus the initial position of the whale is -233.

It rises 73 feet, the position of the whale becomes 73 feet higher. This means we should add 73.

Then it comes up another 40 feet, so we need to add 40.

Mathematically,

-233+73+40=-160+40=-120

The whale is at a depth 120 feet below the sea level.
