We develop two different right triangles in which the opposite side to the given angle of depression is 1500 ft and the length of the runway is the y.
                (45°) -->       tan (45°) = 1500 ft / y₁  
                                                     y₁ = 1500 ft
                (42⁰) -->        tan (42⁰) = 1500 ft / y₂
                                                      y₂ = 1665.92 ft
Finding the difference between two y's, the answer would be 165.92 ft.

Okay. So t is in the parenthesis of the equations and represents the number of years after 1950. In this case, the first, second, third, and the seventh tile won't work, because those numbers are too big to be applicable as years. The number of vinyls sold each year would be put behind the equal sign. If you solve it correctly, here are your answers starting from the top:

1. f(8) = 68,594
2. f(11) = 91,299
3. f(2) = 38,720
4. f(17) = 161,743

Is 16x2 - 16x + 4 a perfect square?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the completing the square method:

16(x^2-x)+4

=16((x-1/2)^2 - (1/2)^2)+4

=16((x-1/2)^2 - 1/4)+4

=16((x-1/2)^2) - 16/4 + 4

=16(x-1/2)^2

=4^2(x-1/2)^2

The product of two square is itself a square.
