The problem says that <span>Brandon sights a helicopter above a building that is 200 feet away at an angle of elevation of 30 degrees. So, you can calculate the height asked, by following this procedure:
</span>
Tan(α)=Opposite leg/Adjacent leg
α=30°
Opposite leg=x
Adjacent leg=200 feet
When you substitute these values into the formula above (Tan(α)=Opposite leg/Adjacent leg), you have:
Tan(α)=Opposite leg/Adjacent leg
Tan(30°)=x/200
You must clear "x":
x=200xTan(30°)
Therefore, the value of "x" is:
x=115 feet
<span>
How high above the ground the is the helicopter?
The answer is: 115 feet</span>

Step-by-step explanation:
Harry can rake the leaves in the yard 8 hours faster than his little brother Jimmy can.
<span>If they join to work together they can complete the job in 3 hours. </span>
<span>1/x + 1/(x - 8) = 1/3 </span>
<span>3(x - 8) + 3x = x(x - 8) </span>
<span>x^2 - 14x + 24 = 0 </span>
<span>(x - 12)(x - 2) = 0 </span>
<span>Solutions: </span>
<span>x = 2 </span>
<span>x = 12 </span>
<span>Jimmy can complete the job on his own in 12 hours.</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
f(3)=?
f(x)=2x+5
put x=3,
f(3)=2(3)+5=6+5=11
------------
g(2)=?
g(x)=x^2-3
put x=2,
g(2)=2^2-3=4-3=1
-----------------
g(f(-1))=?
g(x)=x^2-3
and f(-1)=2(-1)+5= -2+5=3
so g(f(-1))=3^2-3=9-3=6
----------------
f(g(-1))=?
f(x)=2x+5
g(x)=g(-1)=(-1)^2-3=1-3= -2
f(g(-1))=2(-2)+5= -4+5=1
----------------
g(f(x))=?
g(x)= x^2-3
put x=f(x),
g(f(x))=f(x)^2-3=(2x+5)^2-3=4x+25+20x-3=24x+25
