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

Factor 12q^2+34q-28. Include list of factors.
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

2(2q+7)(3q-2)=0

Step-by-step explanation:

lets set up the equation equal to 0:

12q^2+34q-28=0

now, lets factor:

2(6q^2+17q-14)=0

2(2q+7)(3q-2)=0

now, lets find the solutions:

2q+7=0

2q=-7

q=-3.5

3q-2=0

3q=2

q=2/3
