Answer:

  105.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent ratio is the ratio of the side opposite an angle to the adjacent side in a right triangle. Here, the side opposite the angle is the tower height, and the adjacent side is the distance to the tower. Then the appropriate relationship is ...

  tan(38°) = (tower height)/(135 ft)

Multiplying by the denominator gives ...

  tower height = (135 ft)·tan(38°) ≈ 105.473 ft

The height of the tower is about 105.5 feet.

Answer:

The price of price of the stock after it has been owned for 12 weeks is $92.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The price of a particular stock is represented by the linear equation

y = -0.91x + 103.47

where x represents the number of weeks the stock has been owned and y represents the price of the stock, in dollars.

We have to find the price of price of the stock after it has been owned for 12 weeks.

Since , x represents the number of weeks the stock has been owned.

Thus, by substitute, x = 12

We get the value of y , the price of stocks.

Thus, y(x) =  -0.91x + 103.47

⇒ y(12) =  -0.91(12) + 103.47

⇒ y(12) =  -10.92 + 103.47

Solving , we get,

⇒ y(12) = 92.55

Thus, the price of price of the stock after it has been owned for 12 weeks is $92.55.
