D - the shortest distance from the ship to the shore.
d / ( 17 - x ) = tan 32° = 0.62487
d / x = tan 53° = 1.32704
d = 0.62487 ( 17 - x )
d = 1.32704 x
0.62487 ( 17 - x ) = 1.32704 x
10.62279 - 0.62487 x = 1.32704 x
x = 10.62279 : 1.95191
x = 5.44226 miles
d = 5.44226 · 1.32704
Answer:
d = 7.222 miles
Answer:
The answer is 62.17
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 3 in the thousandths is not equal to or greater than 5
<span>Sphere: (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
Intersection in xy-plane: (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 = 36
Intersection in xz-plane: DNE
Intersection in yz-plane: (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 84
The desired equation is quite simple. Let's first create an equation for the sphere centered at the origin:
x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 10^2
Now let's translate that sphere to the desired center (4, -12, 8). To do that, just subtract the center coordinate from the x, y, and z variables. So
(x - 4)^2 + (y - -12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 10^2
(x - 4)^2 + (y - -12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
Might as well deal with that double negative for y, so
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
And we have the desired equation.
Now for dealing with the coordinate planes. Basically, for each coordinate plane, simply set the coordinate value to 0 for the axis that's not in the desired plane. So for the xy-plane, set the z value to 0 and simplify. So let's do that for each plane:
xy-plane:
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (0 - 8)^2 = 100
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (-8)^2 = 100
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + 64 = 100
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 = 36
xz-plane:
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
(x - 4)^2 + (0 + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
(x - 4)^2 + 12^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
(x - 4)^2 + 144 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
(x - 4)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = -44
And since there's no possible way to ever get a sum of 2 squares to be equal to a negative number, the answer to this intersection is DNE. This shouldn't be a surprise since the center point is 12 units from this plane and the sphere has a radius of only 10 units.
yz-plane:
(x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
(0 - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
(-4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
16 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100
(y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 84</span>
Find the ticket unit cost: divide the total paid, $324, by the number of tickets, x. Then the form of the unit cost is
$324
--------- .
x
This question is highly unusual in that you write "x" as the number of tickets sold, instead of a specific number of tickets. Supposing that you'd sold 100 tickets for $324, then the unit cost would be, much more typically, a numeric ratio:
$324
----------------- = $3.24/ticket
100 tickets
The answers would be (0,10) , (20,0) , and (100,100)
