To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure below:

 1. You have that:

 - Sarah sights the top of the statue of liberty at an angle of elevation of 61°.

 - She is standing 166 feet from the base of the statue.
<span>
 - Sarah is 5.5 feet tall.

 2. Therefore, the heigth of the statute is:

 Tan(61°)=x/166
 x=(166)(</span>Tan(61°)
 x=299.47 feet

 Height of the statue=299.47 feet+5.5 feet
 Height of the statue=304.97 feet

A deer population is declining by 2.2% per year. The population can be modelled using the formula p = 240(0.978)n , where P is t
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

The current deer population is 240.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression given models a exponential decay follows:

p(n) = 240*(0.978)^n

For every year that passes since the beginning of the count the population is 0.978 of the year prior. Assuming that the count starts at this year, then "n" is equal to 0, applying this value of n to the formula gives us:

p(0) = 240*(0.978)^0\\p(0) = 240*1 = 240

The current deer population is 240.

In the diagram shown overline AD and intersect at point E. overline AB and overline CD are parallel . Given the segment length s
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB and CD  are parallel, ∠D is congruent to ∠A and ∠C is congruent to ∠B.  Therefore the two triangles are similar by the AA postulate.  Now, the corresponding sides are in proportion

Since AE ↔ DE and AB ↔ CD

So, AE/CD = AB/CD

AE/5 = 9/4

AE = 9(5)/4

     = 45/4  = 11.25

The equation of a parabola is given. y=34x2−6x+15
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
The x coordinate of the vertex = -b/2a  = -(-6) / 2*34  = 0.08824

y coordinate = 34(0.08824^2 - 6(0.08824) + 15 =  14.735

so its (0.088, 14.735)     correct to 3 decimal places
