We can use Pythagorean's Theorem in order to find the remaining side length
a^2+b^2=c^2
Let a be the shadow length
Let b be the height of the flagpole
Let c be the hypotenuse 
28^2+b^2=35^2
784+b^2=1225
b^2=1225-784
b^2=441
b=√441
b=21
Therefore the flagpole is 21 meters tall.
Hope this helps!

What are the potential zeros of f(x)=6x^4+ 2x^3 - 4x^2 +2?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The potential zeros of f(x)=6x^4+ 2x^3 - 4x^2 +2 are ±(1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/6, 2, 2/3)

<h3>How to determine the potential zeros of the function f(x)?</h3>

The function is given as:

f(x)=6x^4+ 2x^3 - 4x^2 +2

For a function P(x) such that

P(x) = ax^n +...... + b

The rational roots of the function p(x) are

Rational roots = ± Possible factors of b/Possible factors of a

In the function f(x), we have:

a = 6

b = 2

The factors of 6 and 2 are

a = 1, 2, 3 and 6

b = 1 and 2

So, we have:

Rational roots = ±(1, 2)/(1, 2, 3, 6)

Split the expression

Rational roots = ±1/(1, 2, 3, 6)/ and ±2/(1, 2, 3, 6)

Evaluate the quotient

Rational roots = ±(1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/6, 2, 1, 2/3, 1/3)

Remove the repetition

Rational roots = ±(1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/6, 2, 2/3)

Hence, the potential zeros of f(x)=6x^4+ 2x^3 - 4x^2 +2 are ±(1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/6, 2, 2/3)

The complete parameters are:

The function is given as:

f(x) = 3x^3 + 2x^2 + 3x + 6

The potential zeros of f(x)=6x^4+ 2x^3 - 4x^2 +2 are ±(1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/6, 2, 2/3)

What is the simplified form of ((15xy^2)/(x^2+5x+6))/((5x^2y)/2x^2+7x+3))
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

(27xy +3)/5x^2 +6x

Step-by-step explanation:

((15xy^2 )/ x^2 + 5x + 6 ) × ((2x^2 + 7x + 3) / 5x^2y)

(3y ×(2x+ 7x + 3)) / 5x^2 +6x)
