Answer:
8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Area= 64 square feet
Base= x feet
Height= x+8 feet
The expression for the area
A= 1/2b*h
substitute
64= 1/2*x*(x+8)
64= 1/2*x^2+8x
64= (x^2+8x)/2
cross multiply
64*2= x^2+8x
128= x^2+8x
rearrange
x^2+8x-128= 0
using the quadratic formula
a=1
b=8
c=-128
x= -b±√b^2-4ac/2a
x= -1±√8^2-4*1*-128/2*1
simplifying
x= 8
x=-16
Hence the height of the base is
h= 8 feet
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression evaluates to the indeterminate form -∞/∞, so L'Hopital's rule is appropriately applied. We assume this is the common log.
d(log(x))/dx = 1/(x·ln(10))
d(log(cot(x)))/dx = 1/(cot(x)·ln(10)·(-csc²(x)) = -1/(sin(x)·cos(x)·ln(10))
Then the ratio of these derivatives is ...
lim = -sin(x)cos(x)·ln(10)/(x·ln(10)) = -sin(x)cos(x)/x
__
At x=0, this has the indeterminate form 0/0, so L'Hopital's rule can be applied again.
d(-sin(x)cos(x))/dx = -cos(2x)
dx/dx = 1
so the limit is ...
lim = -cos(2x)/1
lim = -1 when evaluated at x=0.

I find it useful to use a graphing calculator to give an estimate of the limit of an indeterminate form.
145/500 can be simplified to 29/100, or 29%
Answer:
theta = 24.4 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a right triangle.
sin theta = opp/ hyp
sin theta = 33/80
Take the inverse of each side
sin^-1 sin(theta) = sin^-1 (33/80)
theta =24.36197794
To the nearest tenth
theta = 24.4 degrees
Answer:
x = 100
Step-by-step explanation:
1. To get rid of the denominator of 5, multiply both sides of the equation to get 5
-40 + x = 60
2. Add 40 on both sides to get the variable x by itself
x = 60 + 40
3. Solve
x = 100
