Two ships are spotted from the top of a 156-foot lighthouse. The first ship is at 27∘ angle of depression and the second ship is directly behind the first at a 7∘ angle of depression. The lighthouse operator needs to know how far apart the ships are in order to determine if they are at risk to collide. Determine the distance between the two ships.

aye bru this a great thing your doin here.

answer: i realy don't get it that much can you me figer it out pleas you

step-by-step explanation:

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
