Answer:
86.63 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent relation applies.
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
tan(77°) = (tree height)/(20 ft)
tree height = (20 ft)·tan(77°) ≈ 86.63 ft

Answer:
f(x) = (-1/2)(x^2 + 8x - 15)
Step-by-step explanation:
This function has two roots: -3 and 5. Most likely it is a quadratic (all of which have two roots).
Then f(x) = a(x + 3)(x - 5)
The graph goes through (1. 8): Therefore, y = 8 when x = 1:
f(1) = a(1 + 3)(1 - 5) = 8, or
a(4)(-4) = 8, or
-16a = 8, which leads to a = -1/2.
Thus the quadratic in question is f(x) = (-1/2)(x + 3)(x - 5), or
f(x) = (-1/2)(x^2 + 8x - 15)
