A flagpole broke in a storm. 7 meters are still sticking straight out of the ground, where it snapped, but the remaining piece has hinges over and touches the ground at a point 24 meters away horizontally. How tall was the flagpole before it broke?

Height of the flagpole before it broke was 32 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: This forms a right angled triangle with height 7 m and base 24 m. Find the hypotenuse using the Pythagoras Theorem.

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Height²

                      = 24² + 7² = 576 + 49 = 625

∴ Hypotenuse = √625 = 25 m

Step 2: Find the height of the flagpole before it broke.

Since the stuck 7 m and the remaining part which is the hypotenuse together make the flagpole.

⇒ Height = 7 m + 25 m = 32 m

In all honesty, there really is no “work” per say to show. mainly it’s just using the process of elimination. the question is asking which domain(s) would be the most appropriate for the function c(n). n is the number of observed vehicles so right away, 1, 2, and 3 can be eliminated.why? 1, 2 start in the negatives and therefore it is impossible to observe negative cars. so, #4 would be the best answer to the given problem.
