If we are to connect the root of the tree to a person to the top of the tree, we form two right triangles. If we let x and and 200 - x be the distance of Harris and Annabelle from the tree, respectively and h be the height, we form the trigonometric functions,
                                       tan 30° = h/x
                                       tan 35° = h/(200 - x)
The values of h and x in the equations are 63.28 ft and 109.62 ft, respectively. Thus, the answer to this item is approximately 63.28 ft.

Factor out the GCF -2x^2 - 4x - 6
andrew-mc [135]

The Greatest Common factor(GCF) of -2x^2-4x-6 is -2(x+1)(x-3)

<h3>What is Greatest Common Factor?</h3>

The greatest common factor (GCF) is the largest factor two or more numbers have in common

From the question,

-2x^2-4x-6

By collecting like terms

-2(x^2-2x-3)

By factoring x^2-2x-3

-2(x^2-3x+1x-3)

Collecting like terms

-2(x^2-3x)+(x-3)

-2(x(x-3)+1(x-3))

-2(x+1)(x-3)

hence  -2(x+1)(x-3) is the Greatest Common factor of  -2x^2-4x-6 is
