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>

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer: y = 5x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

y= 5x + 10

THINK ABOUT IT! if 5 is for EACH additional session and x is equal to the NUMBER OF SESSIONS...... then 5 times x will give you the cost for each additional session, but NOT INCLUDING THE 10 FOR THE FIRST SESSION. so simply just do 5x + 10 and y is the total cost so

y = 5x + 10

How might foreign investment be problematic for a transitioning economy?
KengaRu [80]
The foreign investment is problematic for the economy of a transitioning country because it provides profit to the foreign investors only. They use cheap labor of the developing country. Moreover, the local producers and investors are directly harmed. The major profits are going in the pockets of the other nation's investors. This also causes inflation in the country.

Answer:

Simile and personification, explanations below!

Step-by-step explanation:

"Like the straw in her pink lemonade" = simile

A simile compares two things using like or as. In this case, the story compares the bending of the microphone to bending the straw in lemonade.

"Her voice an impostor" = personification

Personification describes a object with human-like qualities or characteristics. In this case, a voice can't actually be an impostor as it is not a living person.
