Hi there!

We can use right-triangle trigonometry to solve.

We are given the HYPOTENUSE and ADJACENT sides, so we must use cosine in this instance.

cosθ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

We can plug in what is given:

cos(28) = A/17

Solve for 'A':

17cos(28) = <u>15.01 ft</u>

(f o g)(x)

g(x) = x + 2

Since it’s telling you to use g(x), you use (x + 2) as your new x value for function f.

f(x + 2) = 5(x + 2) + 5
= 5x + 10 + 5
= 5x + 15

The equation 4(x – 3)2 – 5 = 139 has two solutions: one positive and one negative. What is the
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x-3)2-5 = 139

(4x-12)-5=139

-20x + 60 = 139

-20x +60 - (60) = 139- 60

-20x = 79 divide both sides by -20

x = -3.95
