The angle of elevation of shadow from building is 50 degrees
tan 50=height of building/length of shadow=h/75
h=75tan50=75(1.192)=89.38 feet
the height of the building is 89.38 feet

What is the distance between a line that has endpoints at (1,5) and (1,-5)?
Tanzania [10]
Since the x values (1) and (1) are the same, we just have to worry about the (5) and (-5)

the distance between a (5) and (-5)
would be  (5) - (-5)
which is equal to   (5) + (5) = 10

therefore your answer would be C. 10

note that distance should always be a positive number

What is the equation of the line, in point-slope form, that passes through the points (9, 1) and (4, 16)?
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

<h2>B. y - 1 = -3(x - 9)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - point

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (9, 1) and (4, 16). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{16-1}{4-9}=\dfrac{15}{-5}=-3

y-1=-3(x-9)

Arada [10]

Answer:

5,477.63

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100

r = 6%/100

r = 0.06 per year,

Then, solve our equation for P

P = A / (1 + r/n)nt

P = 5,500.00 / (1 + 0.06/4)(4)(0.068448)

P = 5,500.00 / (1 + 0.015)(0.273792)

P = $ 5,477.63

Summary:

The principal investment required to get

a total amount of $ 5,500.00

from compound interest at a rate of 6% per year

compounded 4 times per year

over 0.068448 years

is $ 5,477.63.
