This would be an exponential function.

Exponential functions are of the form

y = a*bˣ, where a is the initial value, b is the rate the function changes by, and x is the time period. Since this triples, b would be 3.

ioda

Answer:

203 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

Let h represent the height of the building.

We have been given that at 3:30 in the afternoon in mid-September the Kimball Tower casts a shadow about 290 feet long when the sun's rays come down at an angle about 35 degrees above the horizontal.

We know that tangent relates opposite side of a right triangle to its adjacent side.

$\text{tan}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Adjacent}}$

Upon substituting our given values in above formula, we will get:

$\text{tan}(35^{\circ})=\frac{h}{290}$

$290*\text{tan}(35^{\circ})=\frac{h}{290}*290$

$290*0.70020753821=h$

$h=290*0.70020753821$

$h=203.0601860809$

$h\approx 203$

Therefore, the building is approximately 203 feet high.

Write the expression as a product:<br><br> 1–(2x–1)^2

postnew [5]

Answer:

$1- ( { 2 x - 1)}^{2} = 4x (1 - x )$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to to rewrite

$1 - ( { 2 x - 1)}^{2}$

Use difference of two squares to get:

${a}^{2} - {b}^{2} = (a + b)(a - b)$

This implies that:

${1}^{2} - ( { 2 x - 1)}^{2} = (1 +( 2x - 1))(1 - (2x - 1))$

${1}^{2} - ( { 2 x - 1)}^{2} = (1 + 2x - 1)(1 - 2x + 1)$

This finally simplifies to:

${1}^{2} - ( { 2 x - 1)}^{2} = 2x (2 - 2x )$

Therefore the required product is

$2x (2 - 2x ) = 4x(1 - x)$

A farmer planted corn in two different fields. He planted 500 seeds of regular corn in Field A and 500 seeds of experimental cor

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

1. More pollination process in the regular corn planted in field A than that of field B.

2. Low pest and insect attack on corn planted in field A compared to that of B.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Pollination is the process in which a plant becomes fertilized, so as to produced seeds. The process requires some agent which could be; air, human, wind etc.

Therefore more pollination of the corn planted in field A than those in B would lead to more yield (ears of corn harvested) than that of B.

2. Pests and insects are agents which could reduce the yield of the corn after harvest. Comparing the two fields A and B, if the corn planted in field A were not affected by pests or insects, while those planted in B were affected, then more ears of corn would be harvested in field A.
