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 situation CANNOT be represented by this equation? 4x+7=31
mash [69]
The correct answer to your question is going to be option C. if we look at the equation 4x + 7 = 31, we can see that 4x stands for a number that changed depending on how much of something x can be. the 7 in the equation stands for something doesnt change depending upon variables how much or how little x will be. knowing this, if we look at option C we read that each phone case cost $7 while $4 is how much it costs to ship. since this problem is about how many $4 phone cases Taliba can get, C would incorrect because they say that $7 is the post of each phone case.
