Answer: 89 meters


Step-by-step explanation:


Similar triangles have sides in proportion.


All sides of the tower's triangle are 48.25/1.74 times as long as the pole's triangle.


The tower is 3.2 × 48.25 / 1.74 = 88.7356321 m

Answer is 89 meters.

Solve the equation 3/4x+3-2x = -1/4+1/2x+5
elena55 [62]
Hi there! The answer is x = -1

Let's solve this equation step by step!
\frac{3}{4} x + 3 - 2x = - \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{2} x + 5

First collect terms.
- 1 \frac{1}{4} x + 3 = \frac{1}{2} x + 4 \frac{3}{4}

Subtract (1/2)x from both sides.
- 1\frac{3}{4} x + 3 = 4 \frac{3}{4}

Subtract 3 from both sides.
- 1\frac{3}{4} x = 1 \frac{3}{4}

And finally divide by -1 3/4
x = \frac{7}{4} \div - \frac{7}{4} = \frac{7}{4} \times - \frac{4}{7} = - \frac{28}{28} = - 1

What is the average rate of change from -3 to 0 of the function represented by the graph?
lbvjy [14]

Average rate of change = change in y ÷ change in x

We already know the change in x because we are measuring the x values from -3 to 0.

change in x = 0-(-3) = 3

To find the change in y find the difference between the corresponding y-values when x=0 and when x=-3.

change in y = 0.5-2 = -1.5

average rate of change = -1.5/3 = -0.5

answer: -0.5
