Answer:

52feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up will be a right angle

Let the angle of depression be 30°

The height above the sea level will be the opposite

The distance of the ship from the base is x (adjacent)

Using TOA

Tan theta = opposite/adjacent

Tan 30 = 30/x

x = 30/tan 30

x = 30/0.5774

x = 51.96

x ≈ 52 feet to the nearest foot

-2x-9y=-25 -4x-9y=-23
goldfiish [28.3K]
So to start this off you would add 9y to both sides of the equation and then you regroup it which gives you <span>−2x=−25+9y and then you regroup the terms and get -2x=9y-25 and then you dived both sides by -2 and get x=9y-25/-2 then you simplify and so on 

but at the end you should get x=-1 and y =3
