Look at this like a right triangle with a height of 32 M and the angle at the base of 22 degrees
 The distance from the boat to the lighthouse would be the base of the triangle

to find the base given the height and angle given the formula is

x = height /  tan(angle)

x = 32 / tan(22)

x = 79.2 Meters

Rewrite the equation as y-2=-2/3(x-(-1)) to identify a point on the graph
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

  point (-1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Your equation is shown here in point-slope form, so a point on the graph can be read from the given equation. (No further rewrite is necesary.)

The point-slope form is ...

  y -k = m(x -h)

Comparing this to your given equation ...

  y -2 = (-2/3)(x -(-1))

we see that ...

  k = 2, m = -2/3, h = -1

The point on the graph is (h, k) = (-1, 2).

What percent is $10,000 out of a 120.000
Svetlanka [38]
10,000 is 8.33% of 120,000.

10,000 / 120,000 = 0.0833 * 100% = 8.33%

Assuming that the whole and percentage is given. find the value of the percentage.

120000 * 8.33% = 9996 ⇒ 10,000

If the percentage is given and its corresponding value. find the whole

10,000 / 8.33% = 120,048 ⇒ 120,000
