At t = 1.5 the height is 119 feet.

<h3>What is Height and distance?</h3>

Distance is the measurement of an object from a specific point in the horizontal direction, and height is the measurement of an object in the vertical direction.

Without actually measuring the distances, heights, or angles, one of the principal applications of trigonometry is to determine the angles subtended by any object at a particular position, the height of the object, or both.

Given:

A window washer drops a tool from their platform 155 ft high.

and, polynomial =  -16t² + 155 tells us the height, in feet.

Now, the height after after t = 1.5 seconds.

h(t) = -16r² + 155

h(1.5) = -16t² + 155

h(1.5) = -16(1.5)² + 155

h(1.5) = -16(2.25) + 155

h(1.5) = -36 + 155

h(1.5) = 119 feet

Hence, the height is 119 feet.

What is the slope-intercept equation for the line below?
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

y = 2/5x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (4-2)/(5-0)

    =2/5

The y intercept is 2

The slope intercept form is y = mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 2/5x+2

In this problem, you are looking at a pair of similar trapezoids. So we must be looking for a ratio between a side in the smaller trapezoid and the corresponding side in the bigger trapezoid. We are given the lengths of AB and EF, which we can use to find this ratio.
But before we do anything we must convert units so that all units are the same. Let's convert the 60 feet into inches. 60 feet is 720 inches.
Next, set up the ratio I mentioned earlier. If we set up the ratio so that it is smaller:larger, we would get 4:720, which simplifies to 1:180. Basically what this ratio says is that every 1 inch in the smaller trapezoid corresponds to 180 inches in the bigger trapezoid. Now we can use this ratio to find the lengths of the sides in the bigger trapezoid. Just multiply all the lengths of the smaller trapezoid by 180 to get the lengths for the bigger trapezoid. Finally, when we have all our side lengths, divide them all by 12 (because 12 inches in 1 foot) to get the measurements in feet.

From here, I'll let you find the total length yourself.

Describe the process you used to write the equation of a line through two points.
xenn [34]
You can use point slope formula.  
y- y_{1}=m(x- x_{1})
By getting the slope (m) from ∆y/∆x
You can plug it into the equation and plug in either of the two points as x1 and y1.  This will result in the value for b.  Plug that into the final equation and you have your answer!
