A building casts a shadow 168 meters long. At the same time, a pole 5 meters high casts a shadow 20 meters long . What is the height of the building ?

answer: 1 and 3

step-by-step explanation:

answer:   x = 3 + √11     and     x = 3 - √11

step-by-step explanation:

x² - 6x + 9 = 11

(x - 3)² = 11

x - 3 = ±√11

    x = 3 ± √11

x = 3 + √11     and     x = 3 - √11

= 5

step-by-step explanation:

to find the 15th term substitute n = 15 into the nth term formula

= (- 3 × 15 ) + 50 = - 45 + 50 = 5
