Think of the greater than sign as an equals sign. Then, you solve for m
Draw a triangle with shortest side on the ground (horiz.). The length of this side is 80 feet. Two angles touch the ground: a right angle, and the 70 degree angle.
Then the height of the building is the 2nd shortest side.
The tangent function is the appropriate one to use here:
opp h
tan 70 deg = -------- = ----------
adj 80 ft
h
Since tan 70 deg = 2.75, 2.75 = -------
80 ft
so h = building height = (80 ft)(2.75) = 219.8 ft
The coefficients here are 4, 32, and -24. The GCF of these values is 4.
As for the variables, the values are x^7, x^5, and x^4. The GCF is x^4
To factor this expression take out 4x^4 from each of the terms.
Coefficients should be divided by four and exponents should be subtracted by 4 since they have the same base (x).
The answer here is A.
