Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = length of flagpole = 12 ft

AB = length of shadow = 14 ft

BC = length from the top of the flagpole to the end of the shadow = x ft

Use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of x,

x² = AC² + BC²

   = 12² + 14²

  = 144 + 196

  = 340

x = √340

x = 18.4 ft

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

$899.15

0.85(1199) - 120

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the purchase total, multiply the price by the percent paid and subtract the certificate.

The store offers a 15% discount. This means you pay 85% of the price. So the discounted price is 0.85(1199) = 1019.15

Subtract the certificate 1019.15 - 120 = 899.15

The composite function is 0.85(1199) - 120.
