Pretty sure the answer is 2.2 ft because

5.5 x
----- = ------ 5.5×6=33
15 6. 33÷15=2.2

Although I am not that sure, so if it's wrong.. I'm very sorry :(

Find the degree and leading coefficient of the polynomial.<br> -12+18x^4+15x^3+16x^2
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

  • degree 4
  • leading coefficient 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The degrees of the terms in the order they are written (exponent of the variable) are: 0, 4, 3, 2.

The highest degree is that of the second term, so that is the degree of the polynomial, 4.

The leading coefficient is the coefficient of that term: 18.

Mary went up the Old Tower taking 3 steps per second. Then she carefully came down from the tower taking 2 steps per second. It
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The old tower has 150 steps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of steps in the old tower be m

Mathematically, time = distance/speed

In this case, the distance is the number of steps while the speed is the rate of climbing or descending

For climbing, time spent = m/3

For descending time spent = m/2

Since it took her 25 longer when descending;

This means that;

m/2 - m/3 = 25

(3m-2m)/6 = 25

m/6 = 25

m = 6 * 25

m = 150 steps

which is pretty much the same sin(θ) function, but squished by 1/2 and elongated up to 4π, check the picture below.
