An oak tree cast a shadow of 14 feet. A 30 foot flagpole casts a shadow of 60 how tall the Oak tree?
Alina [70]

Answer:

7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Oak tree = x

14 : x  as  60 : 30

Simplify the right ratio

14 : x  as 2:1

Get the same first number in both ratios by multiplying 2:1 by 7

14 : x  as 2(7) + 1(7)

14 : x as 14 : 7

Since the first number in each ratio is the same, we know that that x and 7 are equal

x = 7

Hope this helps, feel free to let me know if you would like a further explanation :)

Answer please I’m dying from math
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\text{D)} \  15x^4 + 2x^3 - 8x^2 - 22x - 15}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this multiplication of polynomials by understanding how to multiply these large terms.

To multiply two polynomials together, we must multiply each term by each term in the other polynomial. Each term should be multiplied by another one until it's multiplied by all of the terms in the other expression.

  • <em>We can do this by focusing on one term in the first polynomial and multiplying it by </em><em>all the terms</em><em> in the second polynomial. We'd then repeat this for the remaining terms in the second polynomial.</em>

Let's first start by multiplying the first term of the first polynomial, 3x^2, by all of the terms in the second polynomial. (5x^2+4x+5)

  • 3x^2 \cdot  5x^2 = 15x^4
  • 3x^2 \cdot 4x = 12x^3
  • 3x^2 \cdot 5 = 15x^2

Now, we can add up all these expressions to get the first part of our polynomial. Ordering by exponent, our expression is now

  • \displaystyle 15x^4 + 12x^3 + 15x^2

Now let's do the same with the second term (-2x) and the third term (-3).

  • -2x \cdot 5x^2 = -10x^3  
  • -2x \cdot 4x = -8x^2
  • -2x \cdot 5 = -10x
  • Adding on to our original expression: \displaystyle 15x^4 + 12x^3 - 10x^3 + 15x^2 - 8x^2 - 10x

  • -3 \cdot 5x^2 = -15x^2
  • -3 \cdot 4x = -12x
  • -3 \cdot 5 = -15
  • Adding on to our original expression: \displaystyle 15x^4 + 12x^3 - 10x^3 + 15x^2 - 8x^2 - 15x^2 - 10x - 12x - 15

Phew, that's one big polynomial! We can simplify it by combining like terms. We can combine terms that share the same exponent and combine them via their coefficients.

  • 12x^3 - 10x^3 = 2x^3
  • 15x^2 - 8x^2 - 15x^2 = -8x^2
  • -10x - 12x = -22x

This simplifies our expression down to 15x^4 + 2x^3 - 8x^2 - 22x - 15.

Hope this helped!

Consider the following polynomial functions.<br> f(a) = (2a - 7 + a?) and g(a) = (5 – a).
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

1 false

2 true

3 true

4 false

5 true

Step-by-step explanation:

f(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) and g(a) = (5 – a).

1 false f(a) is a second degree polynomial and g(a) is a first degree polynomial

When added together, they will be a second degree polynomial

2. true  When we add and subtract polynomials, we still get a polynomial, so it is closed under addition and subtraction

3.  true  f(a) + g(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) + (5 – a)

Combining like terms = a^2 +a -2

4.  false   f(a) - g(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) - (5 – a)

Distributing the minus sign (2a - 7 + a^2) - 5 + a

Combining like terms  a^2 +3a -12

5.  true  f(a)* g(a)  = (2a - 7 + a^2)  (5 – a).

Distribute

                       (2a - 7 + a^2)  (5)  – (2a - 7 + a^2)  (a)

                        10a -35a +5a^2 -2a^2 -7a +a^3

Combining like term

-a^3 + 3 a^2 + 17 a - 35
