<h3>Answer: Approximately 119.76 meters</h3>

===================================================

Work Shown:

x = starting length of the shadow

y = height of the pole

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(58) = y/x

1.6003345 = y/x

1.6003345x = y

x = y/1.6003345

x = (1/1.6003345)y

x = 0.62486936y

-------------------------

When the angle changes, the adjacent side gets 90 meters longer

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(36) = y/(x+90)

0.72654253 = y/(0.62486936y+90)

0.72654253(0.62486936y+90) = y

0.453994166y + 65.3888277 = y

65.3888277 = y-0.453994166y

65.3888277 = 0.546005834y

0.546005834y = 65.3888277

y = 65.3888277/0.546005834

y = 119.758478075162

y = 119.76

The height of the pole is about 119.76 meters.

I got stuck here on this question... this is Algebra 2 btw
svetlana [45]

I don’t think this is algebra 2 but ok

37

I used the formula (32°F − 32) × 5/9 = 0°C (but ofc replaced the numbers with 99)

Yeah and i rounded 98.6 to 99. 99 Fahrenheit is 37.2222... so i rounded it down to 37. So i think the answer is 37.

HELP 5 STAR RATING ADN BRAINLY IF SOLVED!
alexandr402 [8]
It is $84.6. You multiply 1.6 by 13 which equals $20.8. Then you multiply 3.1 by 14 which equals $43.4. Then you multiply 1.2 by 17 which equals $20.4. Add them together and you get $84.6. 

Hope this helps:)<span />

Expand each logarithm using the properties of logarithms.
lora16 [44]
A.  = logb (3/7)^1/2
      = logb  3^1/2 - logb 7^1/2
      = 1/2(logb 3 - logb 7)

b.  =  log 7x^3 + log y^5
      = log 7 + log x^3 + log y^5
      = log 7 + 3 log x + 5 log y
