Answer:

  38 2/3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In shadow problems, the usual assumption is that object height and shadow length are proportional.

  height/length = b/16 = 5.8/2.4 . . . . . for building height b

  b = 16(5.8/2.4) = 38 2/3

The building is 38 2/3 feet tall.

Write the product in standard form: (x+4)(x-4)
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

x² - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the FOIL method here where

F = first

O = outer

I = inner

L = last

F = x * x = x²

O = -4 * x = -4x

I = 4 * x = 4x

L = -4 * 4 = -16

Combine the terms to get x² - 16.
