Step-by-step explanation:

2 right triangles are formed.

x is the angle btw wire and grnd

tan x = 10/5 = 2

tanx = ht of tower/(5+14)

2 = tower ht/19

tower ht = 38

length of wire =

\sqrt{ {38}^{2} +  {19}^{2}  }

Quan is inviting 3 friends to a party. Each friend wants 8 cookies and each box has 6 cookies.How many boxes should Quan get?
Anastasy [175]
First, figure out how many total cookies you need. You do this by multiplying the number of friends times the number of cookies each friend will get.

8 x 3 = 24

Then, you take the number of cookies and divide it by the number in each box to find the number of boxes you need.

24/6 = 4

Quan should get 4 boxes.

Answer:

f(x)= x^2 - 2, the one in red.

Step-by-step explanation:

To move a quadratic function up/down, you change the value at the very end of the formula.

So instead of f(x)= x^2 + 1, you would do f(x)= x^2 - 2, to move it down 3. This would be the one in red.
