The ship's horizontal distance from the lighthouse is: 1930.59 feet.
What is tangent or tan in trigonometry?
The ratio of the side opposite the angle we know or want to know over the side next to that angle is known as the tangent, which is sometimes abbreviated as T-A-N. The side touching the angle that is NOT the hypotenuse, or the side opposite the right angle, is the neighboring side.
Given in the question,
Height of lighthouse = 135 feet,
angle of elevation = 4 degree,
We know that, tan Θ = perpendicular/ base
Here, height is perpendicular and distance is base,
Putting the values,
tan4° = 135/B
B = 1930.59 feet
Therefore, distance is 1930.59 feet.

Katy has $40 in a savings account. The interest rate is 5%, compounded annually.To the nearest cent, how much interest will she earn in 3 years?What’s the answer
Given:
Katy has $40 in a savings account.
So, the principal = P = 40
The interest rate = r = 5% = 0.05
compounded annually, n = 1
Time = t = 3 years
So, Amount of money after 3 years = A
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=P\cdot(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt} \\ A=40\cdot(1+\frac{0.05}{1})^3=46.305 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the interest = A - P =
[tex]46.305-40=6.305[/tex]Rounding to the nearest cent
So, the answer will be:
interest she will earn in 3 years = $6.3

Given: Dawn's suitcase weighed 25 kilograms.
Required: To convert the given weight to pounds.
Explanation: Since 1 kilogram is equivalent to 2.20462 pounds. Hence to convert 25 kg to pounds, we need to multiply by 2.20462.
Thus we have
[tex]\begin{gathered} 25\text{ kg}=25\times2.20462\text{ pounds} \\ =55.1156\text{ pounds} \\ \approx55.1\text{ pounds} \end{gathered}[/tex]Final Answer: Dawn's suitcase weighed 55.1 pounds.
A department store is holding a drawing to give away free shopping sprees. There are 9 customers who have entered the drawing: 3 live in the town of Gaston, 2 live in Pike, and 4 live in Wells. Two winners will be selected at random. What is the probability that both winners live in Pike? Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.
We need to find the probability that the two winners line in Pike.
We know that 2 out of the 9 customers who entered the drawing live in Pike.
Thus, the probability of the first winner line in Pike is:
[tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex]Then, considering the first winner live in Pike, there are left 8 customers, and 1 of them live in Pike. Thus, the probability that the second winner lives in Pike is:
[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]Now, the probability that the first one lives in Pike and the second one also lives in Pike is the product of the two probabilities we found:
[tex]\frac{2}{9}\times\frac{1}{8}=\frac{2}{9\times8}=\frac{1}{9\times4}=\frac{1}{36}[/tex]Therefore, the probability that both winners live in Pike is:
[tex]\frac{1}{36}[/tex]is the number 6.35 a natural number

6n+36=0solve the following equation if n=10
According to the given data we have the following equation:
6n+36=0
So, if the value of n=10 we would solve the equation as follows:
We would substitue the variable of n with 10, so:
6n+36=0
6(10)+36=0
60+36=96
Therefore, the value of the equation 6n+36 when n=10 would be 96

The equation y=5 represents something we know as a constant function. In a constant function, y, always, no matter what, takes the same value and is the value of the constant. In this case, the constant is 5, it means that for all values of x, y will always be 5.
In a graph, a constant function is an horizontal line, parallel to the x axis, that cuts the y axis at y=c, c is the constant. It means that the graph of y=5 will be an horizontal line that has a y intercept of 5.

According to the manual, a battery in a cellular phone loses 2% of its charge eachday. Assume the battery is 100% charged. Write an equation to represent thepercent charge, P, as a function of the number of days, d, since the battery wascharged and use it to determine the number of days until the battery in only 50%charged.
a.) According to the manual, a battery in a cellular phone loses 2% of its charge each
day.
b.) Assume the battery is 100% charged.
Let,
P = the percent charge
d = the number of days since the battery was charged
The equation will be:
P = 100 - 2d
Let's determine the number of days until the battery in only 50% charged.
P = 100 - 2d
50 = 100 - 2d
2d = 100 - 50
2d = 50
2d/2 = 50/2
d = 25
Therefore, the battey will be only 50% charged in 25 days.
what is 30% off 10? How u get answer
We are asked to find out what is 30% off 10?
30% off 10 means that there is a discount of 30% and you are supposed to pay only the remaining 70%
100% - 30% = 70%
So you can simply find the 70% of 10
[tex]70\%\: of\: 10=\frac{70}{100}\times10=7[/tex]Therefore, 30% off 10 is equal to 7
There is another way to find out 30% off 10
First, you find 30% of 10 and then subtract the result from the original amount
[tex]\begin{gathered} 30\%\: of\: 10=\frac{30}{100}\times10=3 \\ 10-3=7 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, 30% off 10 is equal to 7
Points D, C, B, and A are collinear.What is the slope of DC in simplest form?5BСSlope of DC = [?]D
Given points D, C, B and A are colinear (they lie on the same line), you can determine that the slope of AB and the slope of DC are the same.
By definition:
[tex]Slope=\frac{Rise}{Run}[/tex]In this case, you can identify that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} Rise=5 \\ Run=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, you can determine that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} Slope\text{ }of\text{ }DC=\frac{5}{1} \\ \\ Slope\text{ }of\text{ }DC=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, the answer is:
[tex]Slope\text{ }of\text{ }DC=5[/tex]2) The debate team with 18 members is to choose four officers: captain, co-captain, treasurer, and secretary. How many ways can those officers be selected?
We have 18 members that can be positioned in 4 positions.
As the positions are different from each other, the order matters.
Then, this is a permutation of 18 elements in 4 places with no repetition.
The number of permutations can be calculated as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(n,r)=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!} \\ P(18,4)=\frac{18!}{(18-4)!}=\frac{18!}{14!}=18\cdot17\cdot16\cdot15=73440 \end{gathered}[/tex]We could have derived this by doing this analysis:
We have 18 to choose for captain.
Then, we have 17 left to choose for co-captain.
Finally 16 can be chosen for treasurer and 15 are left for secretary.
Then, the posible teams are 18*17*16*15=73440.
Answer: we can select them in 73,440 ways.

The area to the left of z is equal to the corresponding z-score.
Then, the area to the left of x=73 is 0.8413Convert 0.111... to a repeating fraction. simplify if you can
Explanation:
To convert from a repeating decimal number to a fraction we have to do the following steps:
1. Let 'x' be the repeating decimal:
[tex]x=0.111\ldots[/tex]2. Let 'n' be the number of decimals that repeat. In this case n = 1
3. Multiply both sides of point 1 by 10^n:
[tex]10x=1.111\ldots[/tex]4. Substract (1) from (3) to eliminate the repeating part:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 10x-x=1.111\ldots-0.111\ldots \\ 9x=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]5. Solve for x:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 9x=1 \\ x=\frac{1}{9} \end{gathered}[/tex]6. Simplify: in this case, it is the simplest form for this fraction
