The ratio of the height (h) of the streetlight to its distance to the end of Laura's shadow is the same as the ratio of Laura's height to her distance from the end of her shadow.
.. h/(12+9) = 5'4"/9
.. h = (21/9)*5'4" = 12 4/9 feet
.. h = 12 ft 5 1/3 inches

The streetlight is 12 ft 5 1/3 inches tall.

Some please help with this problem, I have tried multiple time but still couldn't get the right answer. :(
Tanzania [10]

Given data:

Total number of songs = 8

Rock songs = 3

Reggae songs = 2

Country songs = 3

Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes

To find:

When song is selected randomly to play first song and then second song from remaining ones ,

Probability when both the songs are from Reggae songs,

\begin{gathered} P\text{ =}\frac{2}{8}\times\frac{1}{7} \\ \text{   = }\frac{2}{56} \end{gathered}P=\frac{1}{28}

Thus , the probability is 1/28.

Find the Exponential Regression using the table. Write the initial amount, common ratio, and equation for the table.
Triss [41]

Answer:

Initial temperature;

432.76

Common ratio;

-0.067

Equation;

y=432.76e^{-0.067x}

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, the time in minutes represents the independent variable x while the temperature of the pizza represents the dependent variable y.

The analysis is performed in Ms. Excel. The first step is to obtain a scatter plot of the data then finally inserting an exponential trend line to obtain the required equation.

The Ms. Excel output is shown in the attachment below. To obtain the initial temperature we substitute x = 0 in the equation. On the other hand, the common ratio is the exponent in the equation.

Suppose f is a one-to-one function with f(2)=8 and f’(2)=4. What is the value of (f^-1)’(8)?
yuradex [85]

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent line to f(x) at x=2 goes through the point (2, 8) and has slope 4.

The inverse function f⁻¹(x) is a reflection of the function f(x) across the line y=x. The corresponding tangent line will go through point (8, 2) and have slope 1/f'(2) = 1/4 at that point. That is, ...

(f⁻¹)'(8) = 1/f'(f⁻¹(8)) = 1/f'(2) = 1/4
