Answer:

h = 109.9 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The above question can be solved using trigonometric ratio formula,

tan θ = opposite/adjacent

tan θ = tan 70° ≈ 2.7475

opposite = height of lamppost = h in

Adjacent = 40 in

Thus,

tan 70 = \frac{h}{40}

2.7475 = \frac{h}{40}

Multiply both sides by 40 to solve for h

40*2.7475 = h

h = 109.9 inches

The height of the lamppost = h = 109.9 inches (to nearest tenth)

Answer:

  • 9
  • (x-8)/3
  • -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse function for a set of ordered pairs can be found by swapping the x- and y-coordinates in each pair.

  g^{-1}(-1)=9\qquad\text{from the $g(x)$ ordered pair $(9, -1)$}

__

The inverse of a function expressed algebraically can be found by swapping the x- and y-variables and solving for y.

  h^{-1}(x)\qquad\text{is found from }x=h(y)\\\\x=3y+8\\x-8=3y\\\\y=\dfrac{x-8}{3}\\\\\boxed{h^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x-8}{3}}

A function of its own inverse returns the original value:

  \boxed{\left(h\circ h^{-1}\right)(-1)=-1}

What you could do it is. Start adding numbers and once you get close to
6 numbers See if you are close to 51 and switch around the numbers to make it equal 51 hope this helps
