Answer:

27 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance from base of lamp to tip of shadow

15 + 8 = 23

-------------------------

tan∅ = opp/adj

opp will be the height of the lamp

adj is 23

--------------------------

tan 50 = opp/23

multiply both sides by 23

23 * tan50 = opp

Use calculator

27.4 = opp

Rounded

27 feet

While studying a 100 square mile area of jungle, a researcher finds 50 monkeys. Predict how many monkeys might inhabit a 1,500 s
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

750 monkeys (probable chance)

Step-by-step explanation:

100 : 50

100 square miles to a 2:1 ratio of 50 monkeys

Simply, insert the new area into the ratio to get the result.

1500 ---> 2:1

1500/2 = 750

1500:750

Thus, there would probably be 750 monkeys inhabiting a 1,500 square mile jungle.

The function f(x) is a quartic function and the zeros of f(x) are -3,-1,4, and 6. Assume the leading coefficient of f(x) is 1. W
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

f(x) = x⁴-6x³-13x²+66x+72

Step-by-step explanation:

Factors are: (x+3)(x+1)(x-4)(x-6)

[(x+3)(x+1)][(x-4)(x-6)]

[x²+3x+x+3][x²-4x-6x+24]

(x²+4x+3)(x²-10x+24)

x⁴+4x³+3x²-10x³-40x²-30x+24x²+96x+72

f(x) = x⁴-6x³-13x²+66x+72
