Answer: 80 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write these as fractions and do cross multiplication with the numerator being the height of the object while the denominator being the length of the shadow:
5 * 128 = 8x
640 = 8x
80 = x
Thus, the height of the lighthouse is 80 feet tall.
Answer:
$45.15
Step-by-step explanation:
When you are dealing with questions with percents in them—like this one—you have to turn the percent into a decimal. To make 7.5% into a decimal, you move the decimal point 2 spaces to the left. So, 7.5% is also 0.075.
Now, we have to use this formula for these types of questions:
x + x(y)= the price with tax (or markup)
So, we can substitute the variables.
42+42(0.075)=the retail price
42(0.075)=3.15
42+3.15=45.15
So, the retail price will be $45.15
Yes
The rule to check if a triplet of numbers can represent the sides of a triangle is the following: the sum of the length of two sides must exceed the third one.
This happens for all possible couples in your case:

Answer:
C. symmetric with respect to the origin
Step-by-step explanation:
A graph must pass the vertical line test to be called the graph of a function. No function will ever be symmetrical with respect to the x-axis, because that would mean it fails the vertical line test.
An even function is symmetrical about the y-axis. An even function has the characteristic that ...
f(-x) = f(x) . . . . an even function
An odd function is symmetrical about the origin. An odd function has the characteristic that ...
f(-x) = -f(x)
__
The given function is f(x) = -1/x. Then the value of f(-x) is ...
f(-x) = -1/-x = 1/x = -f(x)
The given function is an odd function, so is symmetrical about the origin.
