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

Keshawn is asked to compare and contrast the domain and range for the two functions.
scoray [572]
For the function 5x, the range is the value of f(x) which is five times the x and the domain is the value of x which can be the ratio of f(x) and 5. For the second function which is g(x) = 5, the range is 5 all through out the graph while the domain is infinity.
