The graph has a y-intercept of 2 and is shifted to the right 6 from the parent function.
The parent function, y=√x, looks like a parabola laid on its side. We generally only consider the positive square root unless told otherwise. Since we have √(x-6) instead of just √x, the graph is shifted to the right 6 units. The +2 at the end of the equation shifts the graph up 2.
In order to fully understand the problem, it is best to sketch it. Sketching the system, we will see that the system forms a triangle where the angle of elevation is 36 degrees. We are asked to find the hypotenuse. We can use a trigonometric function. It should be noted that one of the sides should also be given in order to calculate the hypotenuse. Trigonometric functions that can be used are:
sin(theta) = opposite / hypotenuse
cos(theta) = adjacent / hypotenuse
Answer:
a) 720
b) 60$
Step-by-step explanation:
a) each person is served 3 pancakes and there are 240 people, 240 x 3 = 720.
b) Each bag of mix costs 10$ and can make 120 pancakes, but we need 720 pancakes, which means six bags of mix (since 120x6 = 720). Since each cost 10$, 10 x 6 = 60$
