Answer:16 ft 4 in


Step-by-step explanation:we want to find the height of the pole.

It's shadow is 2yards(6ft) long,

3 x the boy's shadow of 2ft long

Because the length of a shadow corresponds to the height of the object casting it, the poles height would be 3x the height of the boy.

His height is 5'6" (66")

66×3=196

196" = 16'4"

How many solutions does x²+3x=3 have?
aev [14]

Answer:

2 (real) solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic always has two solutions, whether they are real or complex.

Sometimes the solution is complex, involving complex numbers (2 complex), sometimes they are real and distinct (2 real), and sometimes they are real and coincident (still two real, but they are the same).

In the case of

x^2+3x = 3, or

x² + 3x -3 = 0

we apply the quadratic formula to get

x =  (-3 +/- sqrt(3^2+4(1)(3))/2

to give the two solutions

{(sqrt(21)-3)/2, -(sqrt(21)+3)/2,}

both of which are real.

Circle = (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

Center is (h,k) h = -5, k = 2
Radius is 4, r = 4

(x - -5)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 4^2
(x + 5)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 16
