Mathematics

madam [21]3 years ago

No! Remember, you see a negative exponent, that just means the reciprocal of the positive exponent. So 1 over negative 2 to the third power, to the positive third power. And this is equal to 1 over negative 2 times negative 2 times negative 2. ... So this is equal to negative 1/8.

Can someone help me plzzzz
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

279 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, we solve using the Trigonometric function of Tangent

tan θ = Opposite/ Adjacent

θ = 64°

Length of the shadow = Adjacent = 136 feet

Height of the building = Opposite = h

Hence,

tan 64 = h/136 feet

Cross Multiply

h = tan 64 × 136 feet

h = 278.84132245 feet

Approximately, h to the nearest foot ≈ 279 feet

Therefore, the height of the building = 279 feet

The vertex of this parabola is at (-4, -1). When the y-value is 0, the x-value is 2. What is the coefficient of the squared term
satela [25.4K]
\bf \qquad \textit{parabola vertex form}\\\\
\begin{array}{llll}
\boxed{y=a(x-{{ h}})^2+{{ k}}}\\\\
x=a(y-{{ k}})^2+{{ h}}
\end{array} \qquad\qquad  vertex\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
y=a(x-(-4))^2-1\implies y=a(x+4)^2-1
\\\\\\
\textit{now, we also know that }
\begin{cases}
y=0\\
x=2
\end{cases}\implies \underline{0}=a(\underline{2}+4)^2-1

solve for "a"

I have 5 pinks, 4 yellow, 3 orange, and 3 red starbursts. What is the probability that I will randomly pick a yellow starburst,
Wittaler [7]
P(y)=4/15
P(r)= 3/14

(I’m assuming this is without replacement since you are the starburst, so there is one less of the total.)
