Answer:

Distance between boat and light house = 223.88 meter (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of light house = 60 meters

Angle of depression to boat = 15°

Find:

Distance between boat and light house

Computation:

Using trigonometry application:

Tanθ = Perpendicular / Base

Tan 15 = Height of light house / Distance between boat and light house

0.268 = 60 / Distance between boat and light house

Distance between boat and light house = 60 / 0.268

Distance between boat and light house = 223.88 meter (Approx.)

Which of the following is NOT equivalent to 240/300
Lyrx [107]
Two fractions are said to be equivalent if both the numerator and the numerator of one fraction can be obtained by multiplying or dividing the numerat.or and denominator of the other fraction by a single factor.

Dividing the numerator and denominator of 240/300 by 5 gives 48/60
Dividing the numerator and denominator of 240/300 by 60 gives 4/5
Dividing the numerator and denominator of 240/300 by 10 gives 24/30

Whereas dividing 300 by 2 gives 150 dividing 240 by 2 will not give 122. so 122/150 is not equivalent to 240/300.

Help please, and explain.
Korvikt [17]

Answer: 2x + y

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

logₐ(3) = x

logₐ(5) = y

logₐ(45) = logₐ(3²· 5)

             = logₐ(3)² + logₐ(5)

             = 2 logₐ(3) + logₐ(5)

             = 2     x      +   y        <em>substituted given values (stated above)</em>

Foci of ellipse of 3x2 + y2 =9
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

x=√-1/3 y^2 +3 or x=-√-1/3 y^2 +3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

3x2+y2=9

Step 1: Add -y^2 to both sides.

3x2+y2+−y2=9+−y2

3x2=−y2+9

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

3x^2/3= -y^2+9/3

x^2=-1/3 y^2 +3

x=√-1/3 y^2 +3 or x=-√-1/3 y^2 +3

Hope it helped!
