Answer:

15.2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We use Pythagorean Theorem to find the height.

The hypotenuse of the formed triangle =  length of ladder = 16 feet

base = 5 feet

let h = height of house

16 ^2 = 5^2  +  h^2

256 = 25 + h^2

231 = h^2

h = root(231) = 15.1986 feet

Is F(x)= X^2(X^2+9)(X^3+2X) even or odd
dexar [7]

Answer:

The function is odd.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is even if the graph of the function is symmetric with respect to the y-axis. A function is odd if the graph of the function is symmetric with respect to the origin. To find if the function is even or odd, we're going to graph the function using DESMOS.

As you can see in the attached picture, the function is symmetric with respect to the origin. Therefore, the function is odd.
