The vertical distance will be given by:
sinθ=opposite/hypotenuse
where:
θ=48°
opposite=h
hypotenuse=100 ft
thus
sin 48=h/100
hence
h=100 sin48
h=74.315 ft

Answer: 74.315 ft

Solve for x:<br><br> 2x + 30 = (30/10) * 5(2x + 3) + 87
Svetllana [295]
Answer:
x = -9.375
im not sure if i interpreted the times symbol right

step-by-step explanation:
2x + 30 = (30/10) • 5(2x + 3) + 87
2x + 30 = 3 • 10x + 15 + 87
2x + 30 = 105 • 10x
-2x -2x
30 = 105 • 8x
-105 -105
-75 = 8x
/8 /8
-9.375 = x ?

Write a function in any form that would match the graph shown below.
omeli [17]

Answer:

y + 16 = -1(x + 3)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the graph, parabola vertex opens upwards with x intercepts as -5 and -1.

Thus, the line of symmetry will be;

x = (-5 + (-1))/2 = -3

Looking at the graph we can see that the vertex when traced to the x - coordinate will be 3 which is same with what we got.

Now, the general form of the equation will be;

y - h = a(x - k)²

where (k,h) is the vertex coordinate

Thus, k = -3

So;

y - h = a(x - (-3))²

>> y - h = a(x² + 6x + 9) =

>> y = ax² + 6ax + 9a + h

When, x = 0

y = 9a + h

From the graph, we can see that the y-intercept is y = -25

Thus;

9a + h = -25

From the graph, h which is the y-coordinate of the vertex = -16

Thus;

9a - 16 = - 25

9a = -25 + 16

9a = -9

a = -9/9

a = -1

Thus, the equation is;

y - (-16) = -1(x - (-3))²

>> y + 16 = -1(x + 3)²
