Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
the wall meets the at a 45 degree angle and because of this we can draw a traingle allowing us to use the 45,45,90 method so then we do 12 times 2 and we get 24
Answer: The distance from the campsite to the foot of the mountain is 2310 ft (approx)
Step-by-step explanation: We have been given that the scout on the mountain top has spotted a campsite and he did so while looking down from a 33° angle of depression. If we label his position as point A, the foot of the mountain as point B and the campsite as point C, then it means the scout has formed an angle of 57° between point A and point B. Now we have a right angled triangle ABC with angle A measuring 57°
Using the trigonometrical ratio of tangent
Tan A = opposite/adjacent
Tan 57 = BC/1500
1.5399 = BC/1500
When you cross multiply both sides you have
1.5399 × 1500 = BC
2309.85 = BC
Approximated to the nearest foot,
BC = 2,310 ft
Answer:
The y-intercept is -21. The x-intercept is -10.5 or 
.
(0, -21) and (-10.5, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the y-intercept, you would plug in 0 for x.
y = -2x - 21
y = -2(0) - 21
y = 0 - 21
y = -21
The y-intercept is -21.
To find the x-intercept, you would plug in 0 for y.
y = -2x - 21
0 = -2x - 21
2x = -21
x = -21/2
x = -10.5 or
The x-intercept is -10.5 or .
