Given:
ft and
ft.

To find:
The value of P.
Solution:
We have,

Substituting
and
, we get




Taking LCM, we get




Therefore, the value of P is
ft.
|x| = x for x ≥ 0
examples:
|3| = 3; |0.56| = 0.56; |102| = 102
|x| = -x for x < 0
examples:
|-3| = -(-3) = 3; |-0.56| = -(-0.56) = 0.56; |-102| = 102

Put the values of x to the equation of the function h(x):

The length of the altitude is 
Explanation:
Let ABC be an equilateral triangle.
It has sides of length 16 cm
Let AD be the altitude of the triangle.
We need to determine the length of an altitude.
Let AC = 16 cm and CD = 8 cm
Let us consider the right angled triangle ADC
Using the Pythagorean theorem, we have,

Substituting the values, we get,




The length of the altitude is 
Answer is B. second choice
Segments DE and AC are parallel by construction
