Scarlett is trying to find the height of a dam. She stands 90 meters away from the dam and records the angle of elevation to the

top of the dam to be 26º.
Scarlett's height is 1.65 meters, so the height of the dam is
meters.

Answer:

Height of the dam is 45.45 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached figure, AB is the height of dam NM is Scarlett's height. We have to find the height of the dam. NM = CB = 1.65 m

Using trigonometric equations as:

tan(26)=\dfrac{AC}{NC}

tan(26)=\dfrac{AC}{90}

AC=tan(26)\times 90

AC = 43.8 m

So, the height of the dam is AC + CB = 43.8 m + 1.65 m = 45.45 m

Hence, the height of the dam is 45.45 meter.

the graph of f(x) shown below has the same shape as the graph of g(x)=x^2 but is shifted down 5 units and to the left 4 units (t
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

A function g(x) = x² has been given as the parent function.

This function then shifted 5 units down.

Translated  function formed will be f(x) = x² - 5

Further this graph has been shifted 4 units to the left then the function will become

f(x) = [x - (-4)]² - 5

f(x) = (x + 4)² - 5

Therefore, option C is the answer.

Alexandra buys sweatshirts for $12 each. In her store, she sells each sweatshirt for $30.
serious [3.7K]
Multiply $30 by .25 you get, it's $7.50so you subtract $7.50 from $30 and you get $22.50. Then multiply 2 (sweaters) by $22.50 and you get $45,but wait you still have to multiply that sales tax so you multiply .04 by $45 and you get $1.80, later you subtract $1.80 from $45 and you get $43.20(the cost of the two sweaters) I did part1 only cuz' no I have no time left Sorry for the inconvenience
