Answer:

71.32 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We set up a trigonometric function to get height of tree

Distance ,x = 35 feet away from tree base

Angle = 62⁰ at eye level

Y = tan(angle) * x

= Y = tan(62⁰) x 35

Y = 1.881 x 35

Y = 65.82 feet

We add Tamara's height to the total height of the tree

= 65.82feet + 5.5 feet

= 71.32 feet is the height of the tree

What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are (-4,6) and (-8,-2)
umka2103 [35]
The formula to find the midpoint of a segment is ((x1 + x2)/2,),(y1 + y2)/2).

The x coordinate of the first point is -4, and the x coordinate of the second point is -8.  The y coordinate of the first point is 6, and the y coordinate of the second point is -2.  Now, we can plug these into our formula.

((-4 + (-8))/2), (6 + (-2))/2)) = (-12/2), (4/2) = (-6, 2)

So, (-6, 2) is the midpoint of the segment.

3x(2x^2-3x+4), hope this helps!
