Answer: 72

We can use ratios

117 inches / 13 inches = 9

The corn cast shadow is 9 times bigger than the example we are given.

9 * 8 = <u><em>72</em></u>

Help me plz 8th grade math need answers quick
mixer [17]

Answer:

25. Not a solution

26. Yes a solution

27. y= 2/3 x

28. y=3x+16

Step-by-step explanation:

25. The solution to a linear equation is the point (x,y). To find if an (x,y) is a solution, substitute it into the equation and see if it works.

y=4x-4 and (8,3)

3=4(8)-4

3=32-4

3=28

False

Not a solution.

26. Repeat 25 to solve 26 with y=5x-5 and (0,-5)

y=5x-5 and (0,-5)

-5=5(0)-5

-5=0-5

-5=-5

True

Yes a solution.

27. This line crosses through the origin is proportional and therefore has the form y=mx. It also has a gentle slant meaning that is less than 1/2 and goes in a positive direction. This means it is y=2/3 x.

28. Use inverse operations to rearrange the equation.

y-3x=16

y=16+3x

y=3x+16

F(x)= x^2– 3x + 9<br> g(x) = 3x^3+ 2x^2– 4x – 9<br> Find (f - g)(x).
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\sf \ \ -3x^3-x^2+x+18 \ \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)=x^2-3x+9-(3x^3+2x^2-4x-9)\\\\=x^2-3x+9-3x^3-2x^2+4x+9\\\\=\boxed{-3x^3-x^2+x+18}

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you

Use the law of cosines to find the length of side C.
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

\text{D. 36.64}

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Sines is given by \frac{a}{\sin A}=\frac{b}{\sin B}=\frac{c}{\sin C} and works for any triangle.

Therefore, we have the proportion:

\frac{c}{\sin 41.5^{\circ}}=\frac{37}{\sin 42^{\circ}},\\\\c=\frac{37\sin 41.5^{\circ}}{\sin 42^{\circ}}=36.6399945706\approx \boxed{36.64}

Some body can help me with a geometric mean maze
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorem 1: The length of the altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the geometric mean of the lengths of the segments of the hypotenuse.

Theorem 2: The length of each leg of a right triangle is the geometric mean of the length of the hypotenuse and the length of the segment of the hypotenuse adjacent to that leg.

1. Start point: By the 1st theorem,

x^2=25\cdot (49-25)=25\cdot 24=5^2\cdot 2^2\cdot 6\Rightarrow x=5\cdot 2\cdot \sqrt{6}=10\sqrt{6}.

2. South-East point from the Start: By the 2nd theorem,

x^2=40\cdot (40+5)=4\cdot 5\cdot 2\cdot 9\cdot 5\Rightarrow x=2\cdot 5\cdot 3\cdot \sqrt{2}=30\sqrt{2}.

3. West point from the previous: By the 2nd theorem,

x^2=(32-20)\cdot 32=4\cdot 3\cdot 16\cdot 2\Rightarrow x=2\cdot 4\cdot \sqrt{6}=8\sqrt{6}.

4. West point from the previous: By the 1st theorem,

9^2=x\cdot 15\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{81}{15}=\dfrac{27}{5}=5.4.

5. West point from the previous: By the 2nd theorem,

10^2=8\cdot (8+x)\Rightarrow 8+x=12.5,\ x=4.5.

6. North point from the previous: By the 1st theorem,

x^2=48\cdot 6=6\cdot 4\cdot 2\cdot 6\Rightarrow x=6\cdot 2\cdot \sqrt{2}=12\sqrt{2}.

7. East point from the previous: By the 2nd theorem,

x^2=22.5\cdot 30=225\cdot 3\Rightarrow x=15\sqrt{3}.

8. North point from the previous: By the 1st theorem,

x^2=7.5\cdot 36=270\Rightarrow x=3\sqrt{30}.

8. West point from the previous: By the 2nd theorem,

x^2=12.5\cdot (12.5+13.5)=12.5\cdot 26=25\cdot 13\Rightarrow x=5\sqrt{13}.

9. North point from the previous: By the 1st theorem,

12^2=x\cdot 30\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{144}{30}=4.8.

101. East point from the previous: By the 1st theorem,

6^2=1.6\cdot (x-1.6)\Rightarrow x-1.6=22.5,\ x=24.1.

11. East point from the previous: By the 2nd theorem,

20^2=32\cdot (32-x)\Rightarrow 32-x=12.5,\ x=19.5.

12. South-east point from the previous: By the 2nd theorem,

18^2=x\cdot 21.6\Rightarrow x=15.

13. North point=The end.
