Answer: The height of the building = 56 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let AB be the height of the building and BC be the distance of the car from the building on the ground.

Now , ∠ C = 32°   [Alternate interior angles ]

According to the trigonometry,

\tan x =\dfrac{Perpenicular}{base}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \tan 32^{\circ} =\dfrac{AB}{90}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.6248693519=\dfrac{AB}{90}\\\\\Rightarrow\ AB = 90\times 0.6248693519=56.238241671\approx56

Hence, the height of the building = 56 feet.

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

C. T is not​ one-to-one because the standard matrix A has a free variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

T(x_1,x_2,x_3) = (x_1-5x_2+4x_3,x_2 - 6x_3)

Required

Determine if it is linear or onto

Represent the above as a matrix.

T(x_1,x_2,x_3) = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-5&4\\0&1&-6\\0&0&0\end{array}\right]  \left[\begin{array}{c}x_1&x_2&x_3\end{array}\right]

From the above matrix, we observe that the matrix does not have a pivot in every column.

This means that the column are not linearly independent, & it has a free variable and as such T is not one-on-one

find a rational number that is between 5.2 and 5.5. Explain why it is rational Find an irrational number between 5.2 and 5.5. Ex
DedPeter [7]

A rational number is 5.3 . It's rational because it can be written as a fraction a/b

- that is 5 3/10 or   53/10.

An irrational number between the 2 values would be √29

Enter this into ur calculator and you'll get an answer like 5.385164807  but this number  carries on beyond bounds and can't be written as a fraction a/b  It is irrational.
