To get the height to the nick we use the trigonometry formula:
tan θ=opposite/adjacent
θ=73°
opposite=h ft
adjacent=38 ft
plugging our values we get:
tan 73=h/38
thus
h=38 tan 73
h=124.29~124.3 ft

Answer: <span>C. 124.3 ft</span>

F(x+1)+f(x+2)=2x+3; f(x)=?
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

F=\frac{-xf+f+2x}{x+1};\quad \:x\ne \:-1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. \mathrm{Subtract\:}f\left(x+2\right)\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\&#10;F\left(x+1\right)+f\left(x+2\right)-f\left(x+2\right)=2x+3f-f\left(x+2\right)&#10;&#10;

2. \mathrm{Simplify}\\&#10;F\left(x+1\right)=-xf+f+2x\\&#10;

3. \mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}x+1;\quad \:x\ne \:-1\\&#10;\frac{F\left(x+1\right)}{x+1}=-\frac{xf}{x+1}+\frac{f}{x+1}+\frac{2x}{x+1};\quad \:x\ne \:-1

4. \mathrm{Simplify}\\&#10;F=\frac{-xf+f+2x}{x+1};\quad \:x\ne \:-1

Final Answer: F=\frac{-xf+f+2x}{x+1};\quad \:x\ne \:-1

Find the value of k so that 48x-ky=11 and (k+2)x+16y=-19 are perpendicular lines.
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer: k = -1 +/- √769

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

48x - ky = 11

<u>-48x        </u>  <u> -48x</u>

         -ky = -48x + 11

         \frac{-ky}{-k} = \frac{-48x}{-k} + \frac{11}{-k}    

           y =\frac{48x}{k} - \frac{11}{k}

Slope: \frac{48}{k}

*************************************************************************

 (k + 2)x + 16y = -19

<u>- (k + 2)x          </u>   -<u>(k + 2)x </u>

                 16y = -(k + 2)x - 19

                  \frac{16y}{16} = -\frac{(k + 2)x}{16} - \frac{19}{16}

                  y = -\frac{(k + 2)x}{16} - \frac{19}{16}

Slope: -\frac{(k + 2)}{16}

**********************************************************************************

\frac{48}{k} and -\frac{(k + 2)}{16} are perpendicular so they have opposite signs and are reciprocals of each other.  When multiplied by its reciprocal, their product equals -1.

-\frac{(k + 2)}{16} *  \frac{k}{48} = -1

\frac{(k + 2)k}{16(48)} = 1

Cross multiply, then solve for the variable.

(k + 2)(k) = 16(48)

k² + 2k - 768 = 0

Use quadratic formula to solve:

k = -1 +/- √769
