Answer:

The height of the monument is 555ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to think of the problem as a right triangle, where the distance from the point to the base of the monument and the height of the monument are the legs

well to start we have to know the relationship between angles, legs and the hypotenuse   in a right triangle

α = 11.87°

a: adjacent  = 2,640ft

o: opposite  = ?

h: hypotenuse

sin α = o/h

cos α = a/h

tan α = o/a

we see that it has (angle, adjacent, opposite)

is the tangent

tan α = o/a

tan 11.87 = o/2,640

tan 11.87 * 2,640 = o

554.89ft

if we want to round to the nearest foot

o = 554.89ft = 555ft

The height of the monument is 555ft

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

21899921030

Step-by-step explanation:

e^(i.π) = -1

2^(-2+3-1) = 2^0 = 1

Therefor

-1 + 1 + 21899921030 = 21899921030

Helpppppp pleaseeeeee !!!!!!!!! !!!!

Given:

The function is:

f(x)=6x-3

To find:

The inverse of the given function, then draw the graphs of function and its inverse.

Solution:

We have,

f(x)=6x-3

Step 1: Substitute f(x)=y.

y=6x-3

Step 2: Interchange x and y.

x=6y-3

Step 3: Isolate variable y.

x+3=6y

\dfrac{x+3}{6}=y

Step 4: Substitute y=g(x).

\dfrac{x+3}{6}=g(x)

Therefore, the inverse of the given function is g(x)=\dfrac{x+3}{6} and the graphs of these functions are shown below.
