Initially a ship and a submarine are stationary at sea level, positioned 1.78km apart. The submarine then manoeuvres to position

A, 45m directly below its starting point. In a second manoeuvre, the submarine dives a further 62m to position point B.
A) find the angle of elevation of the ship from the submarine is at position A.
B) find the angle of elevation of the ship when the submarine is at position B.

I’m assuming ‘dives further’ means to go directly down

the angle of elevation of the ship from the submarine is equal to the angle of depression of the submarine from the ship, if we assume the sea level is perpendicular to ‘directly down’.

let both of these angles to be = $ when the submarine is at A and ¥ when the submarine is at B (excuse the lack of easily accessible variables as keys)

then this become a simple trig problem:

A)

Let O be the position of of the ship, and C be the original position of the submarine.

therefore, not considering direction

|OC| = 1.78km = 1780m

|CA| = 45m

these are the adjacent and opposite sides of a right angled triangle.

But tan($) = opp/adj = |CA|/|OC| = 45/1780

therefore $ = arctan(45/1780) which is roughly 1.45 degrees,

B)

similarly, noting that |CB| = |CA| + |AB| = 45 + 62 = 107m


tan(¥) = 107/1780

¥ = arctan(107/1780) which is roughly 3.44 degrees

Answer:

The answer will be listed below.

Step-by-step explanation:

To graph the equation, first mark down your y-intercept which would be 5. Look at the y-axis and put a dot on 5. Now you must graph the slope of the line. To graph the slope, you would use rise/run (1/3). You would start on 5 and go up one and to the right three times. Keep repeating the process until you run out. Now draw the line through the dots and you did it!

Help please!!!

1. I feel the need to explain things first before I write the numeric value. 
   Let x be the total number of students in the school. 25% of this value is given to be 35.
                        (0.25)x = 35
The value of x is 140. 75% of this value is the answer which is equal to 105.

2. Let y be the alternative schools. With this, the number of charter schools is 2x - 6 which is equal to 52 
                              2x - 6 = 52
The value of x is 29. Therefore, there are 29 charter schools.

PLEASE HELP!!! Use addition to solve the linear system of equations. Include all of your work in your final answer. 2x + y = 5,
Arturiano [62]
I: 2x+y=5
II:3x+2y=4

start by eliminating y

-2*I: -4x-2y=-10
II: 3x+2y=4

add both equations together

-2*I+II: -4x-2y+3x+2y=-10+4
-1x=-6
x=6

insert x=6 into I:
2*6+y=5
y=5-12
y=-7

so the solution is x=6, y=-7

You just multiply them because “as” in the question means the same thing as “of” so it will be 7/16.
