Explanation:

The correct answer is: The height of the tree is 8 feet (or <em>the tree is 8 feet tall</em>).

Explanation:

Please see the picture attached with the same.

Given Data:

Tree's shadow is 9 feet long.

Otis is 4 feet tall.

Otis' shadow is 4.5 feet long.

We need to find out how tall the tree is.

The ratios of both of their height and their shadows should be the same, as follows:

\frac{x}{4} = \frac{9}{4.5} \\x = \frac{9*4}{4.5}\\ x = 8 \thinspace feet

The tree is 8 feet tall.

The function m(x)=30x represents the number of total minutes, m(x), that a student goes to extra help sessions, x. Erik wants to
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

900 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function :

m(x) = 30x

m(x) ; function which represents number of total minutes ;

x = extra lesson session

If Eric goes for extra lesson session 2 times per week for. 10 weeks

Number of extra lesson sessions, x : (2 * 10) = 20 extra lesson sessions

Total Number of minutes :

m(x) = 30x

m(30) = 30(30)

= 900 minutes

Write an equation for the
Travka [436]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

For the model function f(x)=a|x-h|+k, (h,k) is the vertex, and a is the horizontal growth or shrink factor.

We know that our vertex is (-1.5,0) from our graph, so we'll need to determine the value of a by using one of the points on the graph:

f(x)=a|x-h|+k\\\\f(x)=a|x-(-1.5)|+0\\\\f(x)=a|x+1.5|\\\\f(0)=a|0+1.5|\\\\3=a|1.5|\\\\3=1.5a\\\\2=a

Thus, our equation for the given graph is f(x)=2|x+1.5|.

The domain of a function is the set of all existing real x-values, thus, our domain for the given function is (-\infty,\infty), or all real x-values.

The range of a function is the set of all existing real y-values, thus, our range for the given function is [-1,\infty), or all real y-values starting with y=-1 which is included.
