1. You should draw a diagram with the information given in the problem. As you can see in the figure attached, there are two triangles, so, you can calculate the height of the lamp post as below:
h1/b1=h2/b2
h1 is the height asked.
b1=360 cm+ 90 cm
b1=450 cm
h2=160 cm
b2=90 cm
2. When you substitute these values into h1/b1=h2/b2, you obtain:
h1/450 cm=160 cm/90 cm
3. Now, you must clear the height "h1". Then, you have:
h1=(160 cm)(450 cm)/90 cm
h1=72000 cm²/90 cm
h1=800 cm

The answer is: 800 cm

Answer:
vertex(-6,-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2+12+36-36+26
(x+6)^2-10
v=(-6,-10)
Answer:
Part A
to the 10th power will be positive and to the 11th power is negative. When the exponent is even it will be positive. When it is odd it will be negative
Part B
The one with the negative enclosed will be positive. The second one, the exponent is only effecting the number and not the sign. The outcome will always be negative.
-30 is the answer to your problem.
