Answer:

height = 13.75 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

use the Pythagorean theorem

hypotenuse^2 =base^2 + height^2

15^2 = 6^2+height^2

225 = 36 + height^2

189 = height^2

height = 13.75 feet

Given f(x) = 3x^3+ kx – 11, and x – 1 is a factor of f(x), then what is the value<br> of k?
STatiana [176]

let's recall the remainder theorem.

we know that (x-1) is a factor, that means x -1 = 0 or x = 1.

since we know that (x-1) is a factor, then dividing the polynomial by it will give us a remainder of 0, which correlates with saying that f(1) = 0, in this case, so we can simply plug in "1" as the argument, knowing it gives 0.

f(x)=3x^3+kx-11\\\\[-0.35em]~\dotfill\\\\\stackrel{0}{f(1)}=3(1)^3+k(1)-11\implies \stackrel{f(1)}{0}=3+k-11\implies 0=-8+k\implies 8=k
