Answer:

19.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean theorem , the Square of the distance between the top of the piece and the Shadow Is the sum of the height of the piece. and the lenght of the shadow. basically Just build a triangle with the 3 points you are given: height of the piece, lenght of the shadow and distance between the 2. so it's sqrt(13^2+15^2) = sqrt(394) =19.8 cm

Simplify completely the quantity 4 times x to the third power plus 5 times x to the 2nd power plus 3 times x all over x. (2 poin
julia-pushkina [17]

We start with

\dfrac{4x^3+5x^2+3x}{x}

We can factor x at the numerator:

\dfrac{x(4x^2+5x+3)}{x}

So, assuming x\neq 0 (otherwise the expression would make no sense) we can simplify it:

\dfrac{x(4x^2+5x+3)}{x} = 4x^2+5x+3

This equation has no roots, so we can't simplify it any further.
