The woman is 6 foot tall

<h3>What is proportion?</h3>

Proportion can be defined as the mathematical comparison of two numbers.

These numbers could be numbers, elements, set or people

From the information given, we have that;

  • The globe is 3 feet and casts a shadow of 8ft
  • The woman cast a shadow of 16ft and is x feet tall

So,

if the globe is 3 foot tall and casts a shadow of 8ft

Then the woman is x foot tall to cast a shadow of 16ft

cross multiply

8x = 24

Make 'x' the subject

x = 48/ 8

x = 6 foot

Thus, the woman is 6 foot tall

Write an equation of the line through (6,-2) with a slope of 4
torisob [31]

Notice that for this question, they are providing you with:

1) The slope of the line (4)

2) a point on the plane through which the line goes (6, -2)

So you can directly use for this the "point-slope" form of a line which is as follows:

y-y_0=m(x-x_{0)}

This includes m as the slope, and the pair (x0, y0) as the pair representing the point the line goes through.

So, let's use the info they gave you to complete this:

y-(-2)=4(x-6)

which we can work out a little more:

y+2=4x-24

And even a little more to finish the equation of the line in its standard slope-intercept form:

y=4x-24-2=4x-26

So the equation of the line is:

y=4x-26
