Answer:

28.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A water tower casts a shadow that is 24 foot long. A 9.5 foot tall tree casts a shadow that is 8 foot long. What is the height of the water tower?

The formula is given as:

Height of the tower/Shadow of the tower = Height of the tree/Shadow of the tree

Let the Height of the tower = x

Hence:

x/24 = 9.5/8

Cross Multiply

8x = 24 × 9.5

x = 24 × 9.5/8

x = 28.5 feet

Therefore, the height of the water tower is 28.5 feet

The quotient in polynomial form is C. x² - x ₊ 1.

<h3>What is synthetic division?</h3>

In algebra, synthetic division is a method for manually performing Euclidean division of polynomials, with less calculation than long division.

The given problem is-

-3 | 1  2  -2  3

Using synthetic division method,

-3 | 1  2  -2  3

   <u>|   -3    3  3 </u>

   |1   -1    1  6

So, the remainder from the calculation is 6 .

And the quotient polynomial is x² - x ₊ 1.

Hence, the correct answer for the given question is C. x² - x ₊ 1
