Answer: The post office is 32 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

We set up a proportion : 10ft/15ft = xft/48ft

In this equation "x" is the height of the post office. After setting up a proportion with the size of the buildings on the top (numerator) and the shadows of each building on the bottom (denominator) we cross multipy to get our equation to find x. We then divide both sides of the equation by 15 to get our answer.

\frac{10}{15}=\frac{x}{48} \\15x=10*48\\15x=480\\x=32

Drag and drop each expression into the box to correctly classify it as having a positive or negative product
AfilCa [17]

Following expressions will have negative product

(\frac{1}{2})(-\frac{1}{2})\ and\ (-\frac{1}{2})(\frac{1}{2})

Following expressions will have positive product

(-\frac{1}{2})(-\frac{1}{2})\ and\ (\frac{1}{2})(\frac{1}{2})

Further explanation:

We will see at each expression one by one

First expression is:

(-\frac{1}{2})(\frac{1}{2})

In the given expression one term is positive and one term is negative. The product of negative and positive terms is negative.

Second Expression is:

(-\frac{1}{2})(-\frac{1}{2})

Both terms are negative and the product of two negative terms is positive.

Third Expression is:

(\frac{1}{2})(-\frac{1}{2})

The expression has one positive and one negative term so the product will be negative

Fourth Expression is:

(\frac{1}{2})(\frac{1}{2})

Both terms are positive so the product will also be positive

What is the polynomial function of lowest degree with lead coefficient 1 and roots 1 and 1 + i?
astra-53 [7]

x³ - 3x² + 4x - 2

complex roots occur in conjugate pairs

1 + i is a root then so is 1 - i

the factors of the polynomial are therefore

f(x) = (x - 1 )(x - (1 + i))(x - (1 - i))

     = (x - 1 )(x² - 2x + 2 ) ( expand factors and simplify )

     = x³ - 3x² + 4x - 2
