Answer:

1 : 36

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the scale factor, the dimensions must be in the same units.

Using the conversion

1 foot = 12 inches, then

15 feet = 15 × 12 = 180 inches, thus

scale factor = 5 : 180 ← divide both parts by 5

scale factor = 1 : 36

Coleman uses his graphing calculator to find all of the solutions to the equation shown below.
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. x = -1.38 and 0.82

Please find attached the combined function chart

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is x³ + 3 = -x⁴ + 4

Plotting the equation using Excel, we have;

f(x) = x³ + 3, h(x) = -x⁴ + 4

x                                             f(x)                                       h(x)

-1.4                                         0.256                                   0.1584

-1.39                                       0.314381                              0.26699

-1.38                                       0.371928                             0.373261

-1.37                                       0.428647                             0.477246

-1.36                                       0.484544                             0.57898

Which shows an intersection at the point around -1.38

x                                          f(x)                                     h(x)

0.77                                    3.456533                         3.64847

0.78                                    3.474552                         3.629849

0.79                                    3.493039                          3.610499

0.8                                         3.512                                3.5904

0.81                                      3.531441                           3.569533

0.82                                       3.551368                          3.547878

0.83                                       3.571787                            3.525417

Which shows the intersection point around 0.82

Therefore, the correct option is x = -1.38 and 0.82

From the graphing calculator the intersection point is given as

x = -1.3802775691 and 0.81917251339.

If the area of the triangular kite is 24 square ft and its base is 4 feet, find the height of the kite.
beks73 [17]
Area of a triangle is   A = (1/2) (b) (h).  Here we are given A and b and need to find h.

A = 24 ft^2 = (1/2) (4 ft) (height)

24 = 2(height)          =>          height is 12 ft            (answer)
