It just happens that tan 14 degrees is about 0.25 or 1/4. According to my calculator, it's actaull 0.249.
Now try finding tan 76 degrees to approx. the same level of accuracy.
tan 76 deg = (via calculator) 4.0108. this could be re-written as 4 or 4.1.
Answer:
f(x) = 6 when x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the problem, it gives you two scenarios to get f(x):
1) When x is less than 0, multiply x by -2.
2) When x is greater than or equal to 0, multiply x by 4.
As defined by the question, x = -3. Since -3 is less than 0, you would go to scenario 1, which multiplies x (-3) by -2, giving you 6.
Part A) Find BC, the distance from Tower 2 to the plane, to the nearest foot.
in the triangle ACD
sin16=CD/(7600+BD)--------> CD=sin16*(7600+BD)---------> equation 1
in the triangle BCD
sin24=CD/BD-----------> CD=sin24*BD---------------> equation 2
equation 1=equation 2
sin16*(7600+BD)=sin24*BD-----> sin16*7600+sin16*BD=sin24*BD
sin24*BD-sin16*BD=sin16*7600----> BD=[sin16*7600]/[sin24-sin16]
BD=15979 ft
in the triangle BCD
cos24=BD/BC---------> BC=BD/cos24-------> 15979/cos24-------> 17491
BC=17491 ft
the answer part 1) BC is 17491 ft
Part 2) Find CD, the height of the plane from the ground, to the nearest foot.
CD=sin24*BD ( remember equation 2)
BD=15979 ft
CD=sin24*15979 -----------> CD=6499 ft
the answer part 2) CD is 6499 ft
13. -48/-6 is the greater quotient because the same signs are always going to be a positive number
14. If they start with 4, the easy way would be to multiply 2 by -5 and then to add -10 and 4 which would give you -6 points
The anwser to this question is 3/3. Because 3 times 3 is 9 then 3 times 10 is 30 so 9/30
