<h3>Answer:  42.8 feet</h3>

Work Shown:

h = height of the building

h is opposite the reference angle (55)

the adjacent side is 30 feet

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(55) = h/30

h = 30*tan(55)

h = 42.84444 which is approximate

h = 42.8 feet

Find the average rate of change, in people per year, for the population between the years 1900 and 1920.​
elena-s [515]

Step-by-step explanation:

the average change rate of a function f(x) in an interval [x1 .. x2] is

(f(x2) - f(x1)) / (x2 - x1)

in our case that is

(7000 - 2500) / (20 - 0) = 4500 / 20 = 225

the population changed in average by 225 people per year from 1900 to 1920.
