Answer:

  56.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent of the angle relates the opposite side (height above the window) to the adjacent side (distance between buildings) in the right triangle that models this geometry.

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(35°) = (height above window)/(distance between buildings)

  height above window = (52 ft)tan(35°) ≈ 36.4 ft

Added to the window height of 20 ft, the height of the other building is ...

  20 ft + 36.4 ft = 56.4 ft

A biologist is studying the exponential growth of a colony of bacterial cells. The table gives the
leonid [27]

The exponential function that represents the number of cells present at x hours is y = 100(2)ˣ

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

An exponential function is in the form:

y = abˣ

Where a is the initial value and b is the multiplication factor.

Let y represent the number of cells after x hours.

From the table, at point (0, 100):

100 = ab⁰

a = 100

At point (1, 200):

200 = 100b

b = 2

The exponential function is y = 100(2)ˣ
