Answer:Cross multiply and solve for x.
x/6 = 5/1.25
let the height of building be h ft
h/6 = 60/15
h = 6(60/15) = 24
the building is 24 ft high
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first let’s covert the ft to in- 5ft is 60 in and 6ft is 72 in. Then we want to set up 2 fractions based on height and shadow, so we have 60/15=x/72 (we put x because that’s what we’re trying to find). Then we do cross multiplication so now we have 15x=4320. We divide 15, so now we have 4320/15=288. So the building is 288 in tall or 24ft tall! Glad to help! :)
Answer:
x=4/7
Step-by-step explanation:
6 - 2/3(x+5) = 4x
First I want to clear the fraction so I will multiply everything by 3
3*6 -3* 2/3(x+5) = 3*4x
18 - 2(x+5) =12x
Distribute
18 - 2x-10 =12x
Combine like terms
8 -2x = 12x
Add 2x to each side
8 -2x+2x =12x+2x
8 = 14x
Divide each side by 14
8/14 =14x/14
8/14=x
Divide top and bottom by 2
4/7=x
I truly don’t know the answer but i think it is 837 feet
The question is very vague, but here's what it tells me.
We know that the coordinates are (4, 25) meaning the x is 4 and the y is 25.
Since time is x and height is y, all this is saying is this:
After 4 weeks, the corn stock is 25 inches.
You can go deeper and divide 25 by 4 to find out the rate of growth. That would give you 6.25, meaning
The corn stock grows 6.25 inches every week.
