Answer:
21 in
Step-by-step explanation:
by the Pythagorean theorem we have
notice that the 841 and the 400 don't go squared because they already squared!
The average rate of change in a function from a to b is
.
For the left function, from x = 4 to x = 5, the rate of change is
.
For the right function, the rate of change is
Using a ratio to compare the right function's growth rate with that of the left function, you get 
.
The right function is growing approximately 21 times faster than the left function (over the interval from 4 to 5).
Answer: The lamppost is 7 feet 2 inches
Step-by-step explanation: If Ann measured her own height and her shadow, then what she used is a ratio between both measurements. If she can measure the shadow of the lamppost, then she can use the same ratio of her height and it’s shadow to derive the correct measurement of the lamppost.
If Ann’s height was measured as 5 feet 3 inches, and her shadow was 8 feet 9 inches, the ratio between them can be expressed as 3:5.
Reduce both dimensions to the same unit, that is, inches. (Remember 12 inches = 1 foot)
Ratio = 63/105
Reduce to the least fraction
Ratio = 3/5
If the height of the lamppost is H, then
H/144 = 3/5
H = (144 x3)/5
H = 86.4
Therefore the lamppost is approximately 86 inches, that is 7 feet and 2 inches tall.
