Answer: 16
Step-by-step explanation: 27-11=16
We can look at 2 similar triangles.
1st triangle has legs: a vertical pole and its shadow, and
2nd triangle has legs legs : a child and his(her) shadow.
We can write a proportion:
height of a pole/height of a child= shadow of a pole/shadow of a child
8/4 = 5/shadow of a child
shadow of a child=(5*4)/8=5/2 ft
Answer: 5/2 ft
Answer:
311.25 hours ; almost 13 days
Step-by-step explanation:
actually you will not able to drive a car all the way around the earth (the Pacific and Atlantic oceans are really big).
but According to the calculation it would take you around 311.25 hours ( almost 13 days) to drive the 24,900 miles around the circumference of the earth at its widest point (the equator).
because we know ,
t=s/v
=(24,900/80)hours [ s= the circumference of the earth]
=311.25 hours [v=Velocity]
Y = 2 + 3x
x + y = 26
Substitute:
x + (2 + 3x) = 26
4x + 2 = 26
4x = 24
x = 6
6 + y = 26
y = 20
I am pretty sure it is b sorry if wrong
