You are pulling up an anchor while on a boat. You pull up the anchor at a rate of 0.5 feet per second. After 6 seconds, the anchor is 8 feet from your hands. Write an equation that represents the distance y (in feet) that the anchor is from your hands after x seconds. Then graph the equation

your answer is 228

step-by-step explanation:

add the top and bottom bases together, then divide them by 2, then multiply by the height.

mxb67

step-by-step explanation:

check above link.

graphically?   well, you graph them both, the solutions is where they both intersect each other, since there are two solutions, meaning they will meet twice, or namely the linear will run into the quadratic curve twice, and where they meet, those x,y coordinates are the solutions to the system.

11.2

step-by-step explanation:

when doing tangent the tangent of the angle is equal to the opposite side from the angle over the adjacent side to the angle.

tan43 = x / 12

move 12 over by multiplying each side by 12

12tan43 = x

x = about 11.2
