The height of the pole based on the angle of depression given is 62.2m.

<h3>How to calculate the height?</h3>

From the information given, Liam is on the other side of the pole, and the angle of depression from the top of the pole to Liam is 52° and the boys are standing 58 m apart.

Let the height = h

It should be noted that:

tan = opposite/adjacent

tan 43° = 58/h

tan 43° × h = 58

0.9325  × h = 58

0.9325h = 58

h = 58/0.9325

h = 62.2m

The height of the pole is 26.94m

<h3>What is angle of depression?</h3>

Angle of depression is the angle between the line of sight and the horizontal.

Analysis:

let the distance from pole to the other guy be x

tan 38 = h/x

Also

tan 47 = h/58- x

(58 - x ) tan47 = xtan 38

(58 - x)(1.072) = 0.78x

62.17 - 1.072x = 0.78x

62.17 = 1.072x+0.78x

1.8x = 62.17

x = 34.54

h = xtan38

h = 34.54(0.78) = 26.94m

In conclusion, the height of pole is 26.94m

Given r(x) = x square +2x -1 and s(x) = x-1 what is the value of r(s(3))
Amanda [17]

Answer:

r(s(3))=7

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

r(x)=x^{2} +2x-1

s(x)=x-1

we know that

The function composition is equal to

(r ∘ s )(x) = r(s(x))

In the function r(x) substitute the variable x by the function s(x)

so

r(s(x))=(x-1)^{2} +2(x-1)-1

For x=3

substitute the value of x=3 in the function composition

r(s(3))=(3-1)^{2} +2(3-1)-1

r(s(3))=(2)^{2} +2(2)-1

r(s(3))=4+4-1

r(s(3))=7

What is the average rate of change of the function over the interval x = 0 to x = 8?
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

if f(x) = 3x+4, the rate of change is 4.

if f(x) = 2x+7, the rate of change is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the average rate of change over the interval x=0 to x=8 is:

(f(x2) - f(x1))/x2-x1

Where:

x2 = 8

x1 = 0

if f(x) = 3x+4

so f(8)=3(8)+4 = 28

f(0)=3(0)+4 = 4

Then: (f(x2) - f(x1))/x2-x1 = (28 - 4)/8-0 = 24/8 = 3

On the other hand, if f(x) = 2x+7

f(8) = 2(8)+7 = 23

f(0) = 2(0)+7 = 7

Then: (f(x2) - f(x1))/x2-x1 = Then: 23 - 7/8-0 = 16/8 = 2
