Answer:

A) 180.08 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram depicting the situation is shown in the attachment.

From the diagram the height is f ft.

The side we are trying to find is opposite to the given angle which is $42\degree$

We use the tangent ratio to obtain;

$\tan 42\degree=\frac{f}{200}$

We solve for f to get:

$f=200\tan 42\degree$

$f=180.08ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the average rate of change of each given function over the interval [-2, 2]]:

✔️ Average rate of change of m(x) over [-2, 2]:

Average rate of change = $\frac{m(b) - m(a)}{b - a}$

Where,

a = -2, m(a) = -12

b = 2, m(b) = 4

Plug in the values into the equation

Average rate of change = $\frac{4 - (-12)}{2 - (-2)}$

= $\frac{16}{4}$

Average rate of change = 4

✔️ Average rate of change of n(x) over [-2, 2]:

Average rate of change = $\frac{n(b) - n(a)}{b - a}$

Where,

a = -2, n(a) = -6

b = 2, n(b) = 6

Plug in the values into the equation

Average rate of change = $\frac{6 - (-6)}{2 - (-2)}$

= $\frac{12}{4}$

Average rate of change = 3

✔️ Average rate of change of q(x) over [-2, 2]:

Average rate of change = $\frac{q(b) - q(a)}{b - a}$

Where,

a = -2, q(a) = -4

b = 2, q(b) = -12

Plug in the values into the equation

Average rate of change = $\frac{-12 - (-4)}{2 - (-2)}$

= $\frac{-8}{4}$

Average rate of change = -2

✔️ Average rate of change of p(x) over [-2, 2]:

Average rate of change = $\frac{p(b) - p(a)}{b - a}$

Where,

a = -2, p(a) = 12

b = 2, p(b) = -4

Plug in the values into the equation

Average rate of change = $\frac{-4 - 12}{2 - (-2)}$

= $\frac{-16}{4}$

Average rate of change = -4

The answer is D. Only p(x) has an average rate of change of -4 over [-2, 2]

Five times a number decreased by 18 minus 4 times the same number is -36. what is the number?

kaheart [24]

(5x - 18) - 4x = -36

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5x − 18 − 4x = −36

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5x − 18 − 4x = −36

5x + −18 + −4x = −36

(5x + −4x) + (−18) = −36 (Combine Like Terms):

x + −18 = −36

x − 18 = −36

Step 2: Add 18 to both sides.

x − 18 + 18 = −36 + 18

x = −18

Answer: ========> x = -18 is the number

Hope that helps!!!! : )
