Answer:

73°

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we use trigonometry to find the angle. The building and the ground form a perpendicular angle, with the ladder acting as the hypotenuse, we get a right angle. We know the length of adjacent leg from the angle, and the length of the hypotenuse. In this case, we use cosine since cos = adjacent length/hypotenuse length. So cos x= 7/24. To isolate x, we use the inverse function of cos, cos^-1. Then x= cos^-1 (7/24) or 73°.

The function y = 60x 1+0.625x models the moose population in a small New Hampshire forest over a period of time. What is a reaso
Nitella [24]
I think that the correct function in your question should be y = 60x⁻¹ + 0.625x.

With that said, the answer is A. <span>0 < x < ∞
By the process of trial and error of the choices, we can see that this choice satisfies the equation. Take note that y models moose population, so y should always be positive. </span>
