Answer:

18.91 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the height of the flag pole

Tan= opposite/ adjacent

Tan 42°= x/21

x= Tan 42° × 21

= 0.9004 × 21

= 18.91 cm

Hence the height is 18.91 cm

Four times a number decreased by seven
Elden [556K]
In order to answer this question, we must break this mathematical expression up into a series of mathematical operations (exponent, multiplication,division, addition, and/or subtraction):

"4 times a number" - The word "times" implies that we have to multiply 4 by an unknown number. We can simply label this unknown number as x.
"cubed" - In order to "cube" a number, we must raise it to the third power, or have an exponent of 3. Our unknown number of x now becomes x3 because we raised it to the third power.
"decreased by 7" - The word "decreased" implies that we must subtract 7 from the product of 4 multiplied by x3

With all of the information we now have, we can form an algebraic expression for this problem.
"4 times a number cubed decreased by 3" now becomes:
4x3 - 7
