You just put the scale of one building on one side and the scale of the similar building on other side, with width and length written in same place (denominator or numerator). With x for the part that you dont know

Length of one building / width of one building = length of other building / width of other building

12 / 9 = 100 / x

Solve for x, by cross-multiplying

12 * x = 100 * 9
12x = 900
X = 900/12
X = 75 ft

A hot-air balloon is floating above a straight road. To estimate their height above the ground, the balloonists simultaneously m
lukranit [14]

Answer:3.677 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to know that the distance between two consecutive milestone is 1mile, I have attached a diagram representing the problem, point C being the point of the balloon and point A and point B being the points of the consecutive milestones

I labelled the horizontal length between the balloon and the first milestone x and the height of the balloon h

From the diagram, we use the tan rule for right angle triangles to find x and h

Tan22=h/x

Making her the subject of formula

h=xtan22 (1)

Similarly

Tan20=h/(x+1)

h=(x+1)tan20 (2)

Putting (1) and (2) together

We solve for x, and then input our value for in (1) to get the value for h, the solution is in the second picture I sent

Note: tan rule says the tan of an angle is equal to the opposite side of the triangle(side directly facing the angle) divided by the adjacent side of the triangle( side of the triangle the angle is resting on)

Angle of depression from C to B is also angle of elevation from B to C( alternate angle are equal)

If the equation below represents the total cost of 3 boxes of cereal and 2 loaves of bread is $15," then x represents
Liula [17]

Answer:

C. The cost of a box of cereal

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, we are given the number of 3 boxes of cereal, 2 loaves of bread, and that the total cost is $15. We can see these numbers in the equation, and putting it into context, we see that the 15 is on the right side of the equation, which indicates cash. Therefore, the 3 and 2 are accounted for, but their prices are unknown. X is a placeholder for the unidentified cost of a box of cereal, and we know that it's the boxes of cereal and not the loaves of bread because there are 3 and not 2.

The placebo effect is an example of a(n) experimenter bias. participant bias. random assignment bias. random selection bias.
densk [106]

Answer:

participant bias

Step-by-step explanation:

Participant bias is sometimes called as subject bias. it is referred to as the tendency of a subject that forces them to act in an experiment. it is held because that they think researchers is looking up to them to act. it occurs only when the subject has detail knowledge about the study or project.

Participant bias is a subject initiative to know about the inner thought of the researcher so the subject acts according to what the researcher wants to hear.

The diagram shows a 5 cm x 5 cm x 5 cm cube.
Nitella [24]

Answer:

8.7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is a 2-two-step Pythagoras theorem. (c^2 = a^2 + b^2)

Consider as such, If I were to draw a diagonal line along the base of the cube what is the length of the diagonal line. To find out that we use the theorem. We can substitute a for 5 and b for 5 as well. So

a^2 +b^2 = c^2

5^2 + 5^2 = c^2

25 + 25 = c^2

√50 = c

Then since the line side of the cube is on a 3d angle we need to do the same process again but now using the imaginary diagonal line that we just calculated and the height (5).

a^2 +b^2 = c^2

√50^2 + 5^2 = c^2

50 + 25 = c^2

√75 = c

c = 8.6602...

<em>when rounded to 1 d.p.</em>

c = 8.7

Line AB is 8.7 cm long.
