Answer:

94 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Write a proportion:

3.1 / 1.18 = x / 35.75

Cross multiply and solve:

1.18x = 3.1 × 35.75

1.18x = 110.825

x ≈ 94

Rounded to the nearest meter, the height of the tower is approximately 94 meters.

If the domain (or pre-image) is (-4, -2), (5, 9), (-6, 2) and the range (or image) is
Neko [114]

Answer:  90 degrees clockwise

This is equivalent to 270 degrees counterclockwise

The rule for either rotation is (x,y) \to (y,-x)

The x and y coordinates swap places, and the new second coordinate flips from positive to negative (or vice versa).

The diagram below shows an example of this for the point (-4,-2) rotating to (-2, 4). The center of the rotation is the origin (0,0).

Graph the solution to the following system of inequalities in the coordinate plane.
Goshia [24]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation is in slope-intercept form, so you can see that the boundary line has a slope of -2 and goes through the point (x, y) = (0, -4). Since the comparison is "<", the line is dashed and shading is below it.

The second equation is that of a vertical boundary line at x=-3. It is solid, because the comparison includes the "equal" case. Shading is to the right of it, where x values are greater than -3.

Write an explicit formula for a_n, the nth term of the sequence 4, -20, 100, ...
saw5 [17]

Answer:

a_{n} = 4 (-5)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio r between consecutive terms , that is

r = - 20 ÷ 4 = 100 ÷ - 20 = - 5

This indicates the sequence is geometric with nth term ( explicit formula )

a_{n} = a₁ (r)^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 4 and r = - 5 , then

a_{n} = 4 (-5)^{n-1}

Answer: 0,16,32,48,64

Step-by-step explanation: the equation 16b means you will multiple 16 by whatever is in the b box. For the first b is equal to 0 so 16x0 = 0, the second b is equal to 1 so 16x1 = 16
