Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From a horizontal distance of 80m, the angle of elevation to the top of a flagpole is 180. Calculate the height of the flagpole.

We solve the above question using the trigonometric function of Tangent

The formula is given as:

tan θ = Opposite/ Adjacent

θ = 180°

Adjacent = 80m

Opposite = Height = x

Hence,

tan 180 = x/80

Cross Multiply

x = tan 180 × 80

x = 0m

The height of the flag = 0

I'm not sure what they mean by "relations that represents a function". I don't understand this.

Means, for every 1 input, there is 1 coresponding output
normally x is input and y is output in form (x,y)
so just look for the option(s) that has/have every first number repeat with only 1 2nd number

A. -7 repeats with 5 and -3, not a function

B. no repeats of first number (6,-8) and (-5,-8) are fine because first numbers don't repeat, das is funciton

C. no repeats, function

D. no repeats, function

answer is B,C,D

$-28x^2y^4+36xy^4+40y^4=-4y^4(7x^2-9x-10)=-4y^4(7x^2-14x+5x-10)\\\\-4y^4\left[(7x(x-2)+5(x-2)\right]=-4y^4(x-2)(7x+5)$
