A power failure on the bridge of a Great Lakes freighter has resulted in the ship's navigator having to do her own calculations. She measures the angle between the ship's course and a lighthouse on shore as 32°. After the ship has travelled 1500 m, she measures the angle to be 72°. Determine if the ship was closer to or farther from the lighthouse at the second sighting, and by what distance. (4 marks)
It is impossible to measure the length of a particular swamp directly. Kendra put a stake in the ground and measured from the stake to opposite ends of the swamp, the results being 410 m and 805 m. She measured the angle between the distances to be 57°. What is the length of the swamp? (4 marks)
Answer:
1) The ship is closer
2) 675.73 m
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The given parameters are;
The initial angle between the ship's course and the lighthouse = 32°
The final angle between the ship's course and the lighthouse = 72°
The distance traveled by the sip between he two positions = 1500 m
Therefore we have a triangle formed between the distance covered by the ship and the two distances of the ship from the lighthouse, a and b
Where;
a = The initial distance fro the lighthouse
b = The final distance fro the lighthouse
The angles of the triangle are
32°, (180 - 72) = 108° and 180 - 32 - 108 = 40°
By sine rule we have;
1500/(sin(40)) = a/(sin(108)) = b/(sin(32)) =
Therefore, a = sin(108°) × 1500/(sin(40°)) = 2219.37 m
b = (sin(32°)) × 1500/(sin(40°)) = 1236.61 m
Therefore, a > b
The initial distance fro the lighthouse > The final distance fro the lighthouse, which shows that the ship is closer
2) By cosine rule we have
a² = b² + c² - 2× b×c×cos(A)
Where the given measurements by Kendra are;
410 m and 805 m with an included (in between) angle of 57°, we have;
Let b = 410 m, c = 805 m, and A = 57°, we have;
a² = 410^2 + 805^2 - 2× 410×805×cos(57 degrees) = 456608.77 m²
a = The length of the stream = 675.73 m.
Use the difference of squares identity to write this polynomial expression in factored form : 9x^2-49
Answer:
The expression in factored form is (3x - 7)(3x + 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here in this question, we are interested in using the difference of two squares to factor the given expression.
Mathematically, supposed we have two squares a^2 and b^2, and we are told to factorize a^2-b^2.
By using the difference of two squares;
a^2-b^2 can thus be written as;
(a-b)(a + b)
Now, we can apply same approach to the problem at hand.
9x^2 - 49
kindly note that 9x^2 can be written as ((3x)^2 and 49 can be written as 7^2
So applying what we have said earlier about difference of two squares;
9x^2 - 49 will be ;
(3x-7)(3x + 7)

the complement is
The measure of the
supplement is.
help if you can
Answer:
Complement = 44 degrees, supplement = 136 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Complement of an angle is the difference of the angle from 90 degrees.
Complement of 46 = 90-46 = 44 degrees.
Supplement of an angle is the difference of the angle from 180 degrees.
Supplement of 46 = 180-46 = 134 degrees.

Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{x = -\frac{5}{6}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]f(x) = -12x+7[/tex]
Given that f(x) = 17
[tex]17 = -12x+7[/tex]
Subtracting 7 to both sides
[tex]17-7 = -12x[/tex]
10 = -12 x
Dividing both sides by 12
[tex]x = - \frac{10}{12}[/tex]
[tex]x = -\frac{5}{6}[/tex]
Answer:
-5/6 =x
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = -12x+7
We want to find x when f(x) = 17
17 = -12x+7
Subtract 7 from each side
17-7 = -12x +7-7
10 = -12x
Divide each side by 12
10/-12 = -12x/-12
-5/6 =x

solve for x 16x - 5 = 18x -2
Answer:
x = -1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
16x - 5 = 18x -2
Subtract 16x from each side
16x-16x - 5 = 18x-16x -2
-5 = 2x-2
Add 2 to each side
-5+2 = 2x-2+2
-3 = 2x
Divide by 2
-3/2 = 2x/2
-3/2 =x
Answer:
-3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, start by moving all of your x's on to one side, and all of your constants on to the other as such:
16x-5=18x-2
+2 +2
16x-3=18x
-16x -16x
-3=2x
-3/2 = x

Rita makes and sells necklaces. The materials to make each necklace cost $2.75. Last week she made 8 necklaces and wants to make a total profit of $78. Using the equation 8 (x + 2.75) = 78, Rita determined that she needs to sell each necklace for $7 to make a total profit of $78. Which error did Rita make?
Answer:
The error she made was that she was adding x and 2.75. She should subtract 2.75 from x.
Another mistake that she made was that she sold each for $7 assuming that she would make a profit of 78, but she should see each necklace for $12.5 so that she could make a profit of $78.
Step-by-step explanation:
The error she made was that she was adding x and 2.75.
She should write the equation as 8 (x - 2.75) = 78; as she spends $2.75 to make a necklace.
By using the correct equation: 8 (x - 2.75) = 78
=> 8x - 22 = 78
=> 8x = 78 + 22
=> 8x = 100
=> x = 100/8
=> x = 12.5
Another mistake that she made was that she sold each for $7 assuming that she would make a profit of 78, but she should see each necklace for $12.5 so that she could make a profit of $78.

A house was bought for $450 000 and 3 years later was valued at $540 000. Find: a. The new value as a percentage of the old value b. The increase in value over the three year period c. The increase in value as a percentage of the original value
Answer:
A) The percentage is given by (The new value)/(The old value)*100 = 120%
B) The increase in value is $90000
C) The increase as a percentage is (90000/450000)*100=20%
a. The new value is 120% of the old value.
b. The increase in value over the three-year period is $90 000.
c. The increase in value over the three-year period is 20% of the original value.
What is the percentage?The percentage is defined as a ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
a. To find the new value as a percentage of the old value, we can divide the new value by the old value and multiply by 100 to get a percentage:
New value as a percentage of old value = (New value / Old value) x 100%
= ($540 000 / $450 000) x 100%
= 120%
Therefore, the new value is 120% of the old value.
b. To find the increase in value over the three-year period, we can subtract the old value from the new value:
Increase in value = New value - Old value
= $540 000 - $450 000
= $90 000
Therefore, the increase in value over the three-year period is $90 000.
c. To find the increase in value as a percentage of the original value, we can divide the increase in value by the old value and multiply by 100 to get a percentage:
Increase in value as a percentage of original value = (Increase in value / Old value) x 100%
= ($90 000 / $450 000) x 100%
= 20%
Therefore, the increase in value over the three-year period is 20% of the original value.

Step-by-step explanation:
→ Find the sum of angles in each shape
Quadrilateral = 360°
Triangle = 180°
→ Add the angles together and subtract it from the sum
360 - ( 80 + 80 + 80 ) = 120° for number 17
180 - ( 35 + 60 ) = 85° for number 18
