The answer of this would be 8 feet long.

If you take 6 feet and put that into inches, the man would be 72 inches tall. at one oclock he casts a shadow that is 1/4 of his length. so if we take this knowledge to the tree and divide 32 feet by 4, we get 8 feet long

answer: 8 feet

Please help asap<br><br> solve x^4+5x^2+4=0
const2013 [10]

Answer:

x=\pm i\text{ or }x=\pm2i

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

x^4+5x^2+4=0

Let's let u be equal to x². So:

u^2+5u+4=0

Factor:

(u+1)(u+4)=0

Zero Product Property:

u+1=0\text{ or } u+4=0

Subtract:

u=-1\text{ or }u=-4

Replace:

x^2=-1\text{ or }x^2=-4

Take square root:

x=\pm\sqrt{-1}\text{ or }x=\pm\sqrt{-4

Simplify:

x=\pm i\text{ or }x=\pm2i

In two or more complete sentences, define the key features of the graph below and explain how to write its equation using functi
Korolek [52]
The graph has a vertex at (3, -2). It extends upward from there linearly at a slope of -1 to the left and 1 to the right. It is the graph of an absolute value function. If we assume it keeps extending upwards the domain is all real numbers. (which is what i would assume even though there's no arrows it doesn't have decipherable endpoints). The range is y ≥ -2 with y -intercept (0,1), and x-intercepts: (5,0) & (1,0).

To write the equation for this function, I would acknowledge that it is the translation of the graph of the standard absolute value function: f(x) = |x| ; right 3 and down 2. Which would be to subtract 3 from x and subtract 2 from the end.
 f(x) = |x - 3| - 2

what is an equation of the line perpendicular to y+1=-3(x-5) and passes through (4,-6)? please help quick
Fiesta28 [93]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is -3. Since perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, the slope of the line we need to find is 1/3.

Substituting into point slope form, we get:

y + 6 = ⅓(x+6)
