<h3>Answer:</h3>

B) 87 feet

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you the relationship between angle, adjacent, and opposite sides is ...

... Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

In this geometry, the side adjacent to the angle is marked 150 ft, and the side opposite the angle is the height we want to find. This means ...

... tan(30°) = height/(150 ft)

Multiplying by 150 ft, we get ...

... height = (150 ft)·tan(30°) ≈ 87 ft

Which describes how to graph h (x) = negative RootIndex StartRoot x + 8 EndRoot by transforming the parent function?
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Reflect the parent function over the x-axis, and translate it 8 units to the left.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

y =  -  \sqrt{x + 8}

The parent function is

y =  \sqrt{x}

Since there is a negative multiply the transformed function, there is a reflection in the x-axis.

Since 8 is adding, within the square root, there is a horizontal translation of 8 units to the left.

Therefore to graph the given function, reflect the parent function over the x-axis, and translate it 8 units to the left.

Brilliant_brown [7]
The answer would be B) 80
To find the answer you would use the equation x/250 = 32/100. Then, you would cross multiply (multiply diagonally). This would leave you with 100x=8000. Finally you divide by 100 on n=both sides of the equal sign, leaving you with x=80.
