Answer:

25.2294 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this question drawing a triangle using the values given and then using the law of sines. (See image attached to know how to draw the triangle and use the values).

First we need to find the third angle of the triangle, that is, the angle in the vertix where the bird is:

y + 55 + 63 = 180

y = 62°

The relation between the angles and the distances are:

25 / sin(y) = x / sin(63)

25 / 0.8829 = x / 0.8910

x = 25 * 0.8910 / 0.8829 = 25.2294 feet

The general term for the sequence 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, . . . is
Nuetrik [128]

We are given

sequence is 2 , 4 , 8 ,16 , 32 , .....

Firstly , we will check whether it is geometric sequence

Checking geometric sequence:

We will find common ratio between successive terms

and then we check whether they are equal

r1=(second term)/(first term)

r_1=\frac{4}{2}=2

r2=(third term)/(second term)

r_2=\frac{8}{4}=2

r3=(fourth term)/(third term)

r_3=\frac{16}{8}=2

r4=(fifth term)/(fourth term)

r_4=\frac{32}{16}=2

we can see that all four ratios are same

r_1=r_2=r_3=r_4=2

so, this is geometric sequence

Calculation of general term:

We got

common ratio is

r=2

Let's assume

number of terms is n

first term is 2

a_1=2

now, we can use formula

a_n=a_1 (r)^{n-1}

we can plug values

and we get

a_n=2(2)^{n-1}

a_n=2^1(2)^{n-1}

a_n=(2)^{n-1+1}

a_n=(2)^{n}..................Answer

What is the solution to the equation? 12 = |X| - 3 X= -36 or 36 X= -9 or 9 X = -4 or 4 X = -15 or 15​
quester [9]

Answer:

x = -15 or 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We can simplify |x| - 3 = 15 to |x| = 15 because we can add 3 on both sides due to -3 being outside of the absolute value bars. Next, we can say that x is either 15 or -15 because of the absolute value (|15| is equal to 15 and |-15| is also equal to 15).
