Answer: $2193
Step-by-step explanation:
v(x) = 32,500
Plug two and three in for x
v(2) = 32,500
v(2) = 32,500(.8464)
v(2) = 27,500
v(3) = 32,500
v(3) = 32,500(.778688)
v(3) = 25,307.36
Subtract v(3) from v(2)
27,500 - 25,307.36 = 2192.64
Round to the nearest dollar to get $2193
Answer:
4585.8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
If we draw the triangle, the opposite side to 3° angle would be "10" less than total height of 250 because Nick is 10 feet above water level, so that side will be:
250 - 10 = 240
The hypotenuse of the triangle is the length of line of sight. We can call this "x".
So, using trigonometric ratio of sine (opposite/hypotenuse), we can write:

Now, we cross multiply and solve for x, line of sight length:
