Answer:

The length WX is about 14 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem involves finding the adjacent side to a known acute angle in a right-angle triangle, therefore, the trigonometric function that we use is that of the tangent of the angle:

$tan(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\tan(31^o)=\frac{8.4}{x}\\x=\frac{8.4}{tan(31^o)}\\x=13.9799\\x \approx 14$

Therefore, the length WX is about 14 feet.

Write an expression that represents the volume of a rectangular-shaped box with a length 3 inches less than its height and a wid

The expression that represents the volume of a rectangular-shaped box is: A. x³ + x² - 12x.

<h3>What is the Volume of a Rectangular Prism?</h3>

A rectangular-shaped box is a rectangular prism. To find the volume of a rectangular-shaped box, we would apply the formula of the volume of a rectangular prism, which is expressed as: V = (length)(width)(height).

We are given the following dimensions of the rectangular-shaped box:

Let the height be represented as x

Height of the rectangular-shaped box = x in.

Length of the rectangular-shaped box = (x - 3) in.

Width of the rectangular-shaped box = (x + 4) in.

Plug in the values into the volume formula:

Volume of the rectangular-shaped box = (x - 3)(x)(x + 4)

Expand (x - 3)(x)(x + 4)

Volume of the rectangular-shaped box = x³ + x² - 12x.

Therefore, the expression that represents the volume of a rectangular-shaped box with the given dimensions is: A. x³ + x² - 12x.

The sum of two numbers is 85. If four times the smaller number is subtracted from the larger number, the result is 5. Find the t

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

the larger number is 69

the smaller number is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the smaller number

y is the larger number

x + y = 85

y - 4x = 5

y = 5 + 4x

x + 5 + 4x = 85

5x = 80

x = 16

y = 69

Y'all I am struggling Use the following functions to find each value below. f(x)=5x; g(x)=−2x+1; h(x)=x2+6x+8

Anni [7]

Answer:

see below the first three problems

Step-by-step explanation:

f(g(-2))

First, find g(-2) using function g(x). Then use that value as input for function f(x).

g(x) = -2x + 1

g(-2) = -2(-2) + 1

g(-2) = 5

f(x) = 5x

f(5) = 5(5)

f(5) = 25

f(g(-2)) = 25

g(h(3))

First, find h(3) using function h(x). Then use that value as input for function g(x).

h(x) = x^2 + 6x + 8

h(3) = 3^2 + 6(3) + 8 = 9 + 18 + 8

h(3) = 35

g(x) = -2x + 1

g(35) = -2(35) + 1 = -70 + 1

g(35) = -69

g(h(3)) = -69

f(g(3a))

First, find g(3a) using function g(x). Then use that value as input for function f(x).

g(x) = -2x + 1

g(3a) = -2(3a) + 1

g(3a) = -6a + 1

f(x) = 5x

f(-6a + 1) = 5(-6a + 1)

f(-6a + 1) = -30a + 5

f(g(3a)) = -30a + 5
