The Pythagorean theorem can be used for this.
.. (tip distance)² = (shadow length)² + (tree height)²
.. tree height = √((tip distance)² -(shadow length)²)
.. tree height = √((60 ft)² -(40 ft)²) = √(2000 ft²)
.. tree height ≈ 44.72 ft
Answer:
(-7,6)
Step-by-step explanation:
entered the equation in Desmos
This is a problem of doubling time, the general formula for doubling time is
N = A(2)^( t /d)
where N is the future wind generating capacity in thousand MW
A is the initial wind generating capacity which is 95,000 MW
d is the time it will double, which is 3 years
t is the time in the future in years
N = 95(2)^( t / 3) is the formula for t<span>he continuous growth rate and give a formula for wind generating capacity W W (in thousand megawatts) as a function of t t , the number of years in the future</span>
The number is 28.
The equation would be:
237 + 6(x) = 405
The problem states that 6 times the opposite of a number, however, since the number sign was not given, we do not know whether it is in a positive or negative form. So we leave it as only x.
237 + 6x = 405
6x = 405 - 237
6x = 168
6x / 6 = 168 / 6
x = 28
To check:
237 + 6 (28) = 405
237 + 168 = 405
405 = 405
