Tan 8 degrees = x / 200
200 times tan 8 = x
28.10816694 = x 
28 feet
x is the "missing" part of the shorter building 
so now you take 50 feet and subtract it by 28 feet and you will have the height of the shorter building

50 - 28 = 22

the shorter building is 22 ft

Which is an x-intercept of the continuous function in the table?
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

B. (3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept is the point where the graph of the function meets the x-axis.

At x-intercept, y=0 or f(x)=0

So look through the table and find where f(x)=0.

From the table, f(x)=0 at x=3.

We write this as an ordered pair.

Therefore the x-intercept is (3,0)

The correct choice is B.

They are both correct in their computation

(28.5-28.5(.3))+.1(28.5-28.5(.3))=$21.945

28.5(.7)(1.1)=$21.945

And since they each have $22 to spend, they have enough to purchase the book.
