The horizontal distance between Carl and the rock at sea is approximately 60.62ft.

Data;

  • Angle = 30 degree
  • Opposite = 35
  • Adjacent = x

<h3>Trigonometric Ratio</h3>

Given the angle of depression from his point to the sea, we can use trigonometric ratio to calculate for the horizontal distance from his location to the bottom of the sea.

SOHCAHTOA

Since we have the value of angle and opposite and we need to calculate the adjacent side of the right-angle triangle, we can use the tangent of the angle to this effect.

Tan\theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\tan 30 = \frac{35}{x}\\ x = \frac{35}{tan30}\\ x = 60.62ft

The horizontal distance between Carl and the rock at sea is approximately 60.62ft.

Solve 9x2 + 6 = 12x
Oksana_A [137]

Step-by-step explanation:

9x² + 6 = 12x

3x² + 2 = 4x

3x² − 4x + 2 = 0

Use quadratic formula.

x = [ -b ± √(b² − 4ac) ] / 2a

x = [ -(-4) ± √((-4)² − 4(3)(2)) ] / 2(3)

x = [ 4 ± √(16 − 24) ] / 6

x = [ 4 ± √(-8) ] / 6

x = (4 ± 2i√2) / 6

x = (2 ± i√2) / 3

(a) How would you characterize the relationship between money spent on advertising and items sold?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

a) Positive Correlation

b) 69.5

c) Base advertisement fee    

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Relationship between money spent on advertising and items sold

If we spent greater amount of money on advertisement, thus, we create more awareness and thus, the number of item sold increases.

Similarly, if less money is spent on advertisement, the number of items sold will be less.

Thus, the money spent on advertisement varies directly with the number of items sold.

Thus, they have a positive relationship or a positive correlation.

b) Money spent in advertising to sell 30 items

We are given the function:

y= 1.6x+ 21.5

We put x = 30

y(30)= 1.6(30)+ 21.5\\y(30) = 69.5

Thus, the score predicted by model is 69.5 units.

c) Interpretation of 21.5

Comparing the equation to a general linear equation, we get

y = mx + c

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

y-intercept tells us the value of function when x is zero.

Thus, for the given scenario it will tell about the basic advertisement fee to be paid if we want to sell 0 products.

Comparing we get,

c  = 21.5

Interpretation:

Thus, 21.5 units is the basic amount of advertisement fee that needed to be paid( the number of items sold is 0)
