The question is asking to find and calculate the said towers base on the given in the question. In my own calculation, I would say that the answers are the following.A. the distance from tower 2 to the plane to the nearest foot is 15052.1 ftB. the height of the plane from the ground, to the nearest foot is 6122 ft.

Answer:

If CD=h and BC=x, then

h/x = tan24°

h/(x+7600) = tan16°

or,

h = 0.4452x

h = 0.2867x + 2179.2649

0.4452x = 0.2867x + 2179.2649

BC = x = 13750

CD = h = 6121

aalyn [17]

Given:

On a graph, points are at (0, 15), (1, 17), (3, 18), (4, 20) and (6, 22).

To find:

The range of x-values extrapolation occurs.

Solution:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

From the graph or given points it is clear that the x-values are 0, 1, 3, 4, 6.

It means the x-values are from 0 to 6.

So, the range of the x-values is x\geq 0 or x\leq 6.

The required compound inequality for the range of x-values is 0\leq x\leq 6.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Which statements about the graph of the function f(x) = –x2 – 4x + 2 are true? Select three options.
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The true statements about the graph of the function are:

The range of the function is {y : y ≤ 6} ⇒ 2nd

The function is increasing over the interval (–∞ , –2) ⇒ 3rd

The function has a positive y-intercept ⇒ 5th

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The function f(x) = -x² - 4x + 2 is a quadratic function represented

  graphically by a downward parabola with maximum vertex

∵ The form of the quadratic function is f(x) = ax² + bx + c

∵ The coordinates of the vertex of the parabola are (h , k) where

   h = -b/2a and k = f(h)

∵ a = -1 , b = -4

∴ h = -(-4)/2(-1) = 4/-2 = -2

∵ k = f(h)

∴ k = -(-2)² - 4(-2) + 2 = -(4) - (-8) + 2

∴ k = -4 + 8 + 2 = 6

∴ The vertex of the parabola is (-2 , 6)

* Look to the attached figure to find the true statements

∵ The greatest value of the function is 6 ⇒ y-coordinate of the vertex

∵ The range of the function is the values y-coordinates of the points

  on the parabola

∴ The range of the function is {y : y ≤ 6}

- The domain of the function is {x : x ∈ R} or (-∞ , ∞)

∵ The value of y increasing after -∞ to the x-coordinate of the vertex

∵ x-coordinate of the vertex is -2

∴ The function is increasing over the interval (–∞ , –2)

- The parabola intersect the y-axis at point (0 , 2)

∵ The y-intercept is the intersection between the parabola and the

   y-axis

∵ The parabola intersect the y-axis at point (0 , 2)

∴ The y-intercept is 2

∴ The function has a positive y-intercept

Ethan bought 4 packages of pencils. After he gave 8 pencils to his friends, he had 40 pencils left over. How many pencils were i
swat32

Answer:

12 pencils in each package.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ethan bought 4 packages of pencils.

No of Packages = 4

No of pencils given to friend = 8 pencils

No of pencils left over =40 pencils

∴Total Number of Pencils = No of pencils given to friend + No of pencils left over =40+8 =48

Total Number of pencils in each package = \frac{\textrm{Total Number of Pencils}}{\textrm{No Of Packages}}= \frac{48}{4}= 12 \ pencils
