Okay so basically 1 + 5 = 180
and if we know 1 = 124 we can assume 5 = 56
and 5 = 4 SOOOO
4 = 56
Let f(x)=0, you'll get x=3 and x=-5, those are the x-intercepts of the function.
Whenever we have a negative exponent, that means that the function should be in the denomenator. then the exponent will be positive.
Example
16^-4 = 1/(16^4)
The horizontal distance is given by the formula:
tan θ=opposite/adjacent
where:
θ=21
opposite=2000 ft
adjacent=a
thus calculating for a we get:
tan 21=2000/a
thus
a=2000/tan 21
a=5210.18 ft
Answer: 5210.18 ft
