Answer:

\theta = 4.8^\circ

It is possible

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for the construction

Solving (a): The minimum angle

This is calculated as thus:

tan(\theta) = \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}

tan(\theta) = \frac{15}{180}

tan(\theta) = 0.0833

Calculate \theta

\theta = tan^{-1}(0.0833)

\theta = 4.761

\theta = 4.8^\circ --- approximated

Solving (b):

First; calculate the height of the building using the following equivalent ratio.

h : 420 = 15 : 180

Where h is the height of the building

\frac{h }{ 420 }= \frac{15 }{ 180}

h= \frac{15 }{ 180}*420

h= \frac{15*420 }{ 180}

h= \frac{6300}{ 180}

h= 35

<em>This means that it is possible that the builder builds a 32 feet high building</em>

Select the statement that correctly describes the expression below
Kitty [74]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is (2x+5)^2.

It can't be A because 2 is the multiplier for only x.

It can't be C because the square is outside of the equation.

It can't be D because again, the square is outside of the equation.

So the only thing left is B.

Hope this helped!

F(x) = -7x2 + 9x - 15 and g(x) = -12x2 – 15x + 7
djyliett [7]

Answer:

{5x}^{2}  + 6x =  - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is asking you to insert two equations, f(x) and g(x), into the equation g(x) - f(x). This will lead to the equation below.

{ - 12x}^{2}  - 15x + 7 - ({ - 7)x}^{2}  + 9x - 15

Now we can solve for the equation.

{ - 5x}^{2}  - 6x - 8 = 0 \\   {5x}^{2}  + 6x =  - 8
