x-\ width\\
y-\ length\\
4x=y\\
(y+4)(x-1)=60\\
(4x+4)(x-1)=60\\
4x^2-4x+4x+4=60\ \  | subtract\ 4\\
4x^2=56\ \ | divide\ by\ 4\\
x^2=14\\
x=\sqrt{14}\\
y=4\sqrt{14}\\\\
Dimensions:\ width=\sqrt{14}in,\ length=4\sqrt{14}in.

Which choice represents the expanded form of the expression (x- 2)3
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

(x−2)^3=x^3−6x^2+12x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

if you are talking about the binomial  (x−2)^3   you must expand then simplify. (x-2)3 you would just remove the parenthesizes and multiply -2 with 3 to get x-6 but I think you meant (x-2)^3

A woman standing on a hill sees a flagpole that she knows is 65 ft tall. The angle of depression to the bottom of the pole is 14
Oliga [24]

Answer:

Let the distance between woman and pole be "x".

From diagram,

In ΔOAB,

tan 18 = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}

tan 18 =  \frac{65 -y}{x}

∴ x =  \frac{65 -y}{tan 18} ................ (1)

In ΔOBC

tan 14 = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}

tan 14 =  \frac{y}{x}

y = x × tan 14 ..............(2)

equating (2) in (1), we get;

x = \frac{65}{tan 18 + tan 14}

x = \frac{65}{0.574}

∵ tan 18 + tan 14 = 0.574

<em>∴ x = 113.2 ft</em>

<em>i.e. The her distance from the pole is 113.2 ft.</em>
