Answer:

The answer is D) 13.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angle of elevation is adjacent to the length of 24, than to find the height you have to use tangent. so you take your calculator in DEGREES mode and enter tan(30) which gives you =0.5773502692... than you would multiply by 24 which gives you the height =13.8564.....

Sorry if I wasn't specific enough, ask if you want more help. I am sure this is the right answer

What is the least possible degree of a polynomial that has roots -5,1 + 4i, and -4i?
Oksanka [162]

Without any extra conditions, the answer could be 3, and the simplest polynomial with the given roots would be

(<em>x</em> + 5) (<em>x</em> - (1 + 4<em>i</em> )) (<em>x</em> + 4<em>i</em> )

= <em>x</em> ³ + 4<em>x</em> ² + (11 - 4<em>i</em> ) <em>x</em> + 80 - 2<em>i</em>

<em />

If the polynomial is supposed to have only <em>real</em> coefficients, then any complex roots must occur along with their complex conjugates:

(<em>x</em> + 5) (<em>x</em> - (1 + 4<em>i</em> )) (<em>x</em> - (1 - 4<em>i</em> )) (<em>x</em> + 4<em>i</em> ) (<em>x</em> - 4<em>i </em>)

= <em>x</em> ⁵ + 3<em>x</em> ⁴ + 23<em>x</em> ³ + 133<em>x</em> ² + 112<em>x</em> + 1360

and then the degree would be 5.
