Show your work.

28.42 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

To Find

Solving

28.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The question can be solved by using Pythagoras Theorem.

Given:-

Height of tree :- 18 feet (Perpendicular)

length of shadow :- 22 feet (Base)

To find:-

Distance of shadow from the end to the top of the tree

Solution:-

We know the Pythagoras theorem,

Which is , H² = P² + B²

So putting the given value , we get

H² = 18²+22²

H² = 324 + 484

H = √ 808 feet

H = 28.4 feet

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

25x^2 + 90x + 84

discussion:

mn(x) = m(n(x)) = m( 5x + 9) =

(5x + 9)^2 + 3 =>

25x^2 + 90x + 9^2 + 3 =

25x^2 + 90x + 84                 (as 9^2 = 9*9 = 81)

which is the second choice

p.s.   i'll be on vacation from friday, dec 22 to jan 2, 2019. have a great new year!
