Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between the two poles is 22.248 feet

•This question can be solved by using Pythagoras theorem that is

Slant height ^2 = height^2 + base^ 2

•Here,

height = difference between the heights of two poles

= 17-8

= 9 feet

Slant height = length of wire stretched between the two poles

= 24 feet

•Distance between poles = √(24*24 – 9*9)

= 22.248 feet

8 is in the thousands place.

Look to the number in the hundreds (right next to it). It is a 4. Because 4 is less than 5, round down.

68413 rounded down in the thousands place becomes 68000

68000 is your answer


hope this helps

Attention!!:Will give brainliest, plz put the right answer. 1.Tim wrote 16 as(-2)^4. Is he correct? Explain. 2.Could −2 be used
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Hey there!

Tim is correct. (-2)^4=-2(-2)(-2)(-2), which is 16.

-2 can be used as a base, because (-2)^5=32, and (-2)^6=64

Let me know if this helps :)
