Answer:

height of the flagpole = 93.26 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The illustration  forms a right angle triangle. The angle of elevation from his eyes to the flag is 25° . The distance from his eyes at the ground to the base of the flagpole is 200 ft.

The adjacent side of the triangle formed is the distance of his eyes from the flagpole. The height of the flagpole is the opposite side of the right angle triangle formed.

using tangential ratio

tan 25° = opposite/adjacent

tan 25° = x/200

cross multiply

200 tan 25° = x

x = 200 × 0.46630765815

x = 93.261531631

x = 93.26 ft

height of the flagpole = 93.26 ft

What is the axis of symmetry of the function f(x) = –(x + 9)(x – 21)?
ludmilkaskok [199]
First, we have to realize that this is factored form, so we have to put this in standard quadratic form using FOIL, which is a rule mandating how we multiply the numbers here. F stands for First, which means the first number inside the parentheses for both of them, then O means the first number in the first quantity(fancy word for parentheses) multiplied by the last number of the second quantity, and so forth. When you are done, you combine like terms

anyway, you end up with x²-12x-189, but you have to inverse all numbers because of the parentheses in front, so it becomes -x²+12x+189.

Now you can find the axis of symmetry uisng the equation -b=2a (oh yeah, I forgot to mention: the standard quadratic form is a(x)²+b(x)+c already). So you do -12 / -2, which then becomes 6.

The axis of symmetry is 6

What is the range for f(x) = 2^x
Natali [406]

Given the function:

f(x)=2^x

The function can also be written as:

y=2^x

The range of the function will be all set of y values.

To find the range, let's graph the function below.

We have:

From the graph above, all possibe y values range from 0 to infinity.

Therefore, the range of the function is from zero infinity.

In interval notation:

Range = (0, +∞)

ANSWER:

4. (0, +∞)
