Answer:
4 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of the lighthouse is 44 feet.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
You are given more information than you need.
Use the right triangle concept,
A yacht is anchored 90 feet offshore
from the base of a lighthouse.
- Base = 90 feet
- Height = h feet
The angle of elevation from the boat to the top of the lighthouse is 26 degrees.
<u>Using one side length and the angle only: </u>
The trigonometric formula is given as,
tan = height / base
tan[26º] = h ⁄ 90
h = 90 × tan[26º]
h = 43.9 ft
h = 44 feet
Therefore, the height of the lighthouse is 44 feet.
2x + 1
You can find that by switching the signs in the second set of parenthesis and then adding.
Step-by-step explanation:
they're is a neat little trick.
but first of all, "roots" means the 0 solutions of the equation. like
ax² + bx + c = 0
there are 2 solutions for x to make the whole expression equal 0.
these are the "roots".
now to the little trick :
when is a multiplication resulting in 0 ?
when at least one of the factors is 0.
and any quadratic expression can be written as multiplication of 2 factors. like
c(x - a)(x - b) = cx² - cax - cbx + cab
what are the "roots" or 0 points ?
either
c = 0
x - a = 0 | x = a
x - b = 0 | x = b
the leading coefficient = 3.
that means nothing else than c = 3.
root = 1 means (x - 1) is one factor.
root = -5 means (x + 5) is the other factor.
so, we have
3(x - 1)(x + 5) = 3x² + 12x - 15
and the equation is
3x² + 12x - 15 = 0
or
3x² + 12x = 15
Answer:
(p • 10) - (p • 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
To be doubly sure of your answer, do the actual mult.:
p(10-2) = 10p - 2p. This is equivalent to (p • 10) - (p • 2) (Answer D).
