How tall is the flag pole (please give explanation too)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tpy6a [65]1 year ago
3 0

Answer:

  22 3/4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram seems to show a 6 1/2 ft person casting a 9 ft shadow at the same time a flagpole is casting a 31 1/2 ft shadow. You want the height of the flagpole.

<h3>Proportion</h3>

Shadow lengths are presumed proportional to the height of the object making them. This means ...

  h/(31 1/2) = (6 1/2)/9 . . . . . all lengths in feet

Multiplying by 31 1/2, we get ...

  h = (31 1/2)(6 1/2)/9 = (819/4)/9 = 91/4

  h = 22 3/4 . . . . ft

The flagpole is 22 3/4 feet tall.

Answer pls<br> thank you
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

d = 5/6t

Step-by-step explanation:

5 stories every 6 seconds

at 12 seconds, it would have travelled 10 seconds.

using this 2 data in this formula

(y-y1)/(x-x1) = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Note : d = y, t = x;

d1 = 5, t1 = 6, d2 = 10, t2 = 12

we have

(d - 5)/(t-6) = (10-5)/(12-6)

(d - 5)/(t-6) = 5/6

d = 5/6(t-6) + 5

d = 5/6t -5+5

d = 5/6t

What is the volume of a regular pyramid having a base area of 24 in.² and a height of 6 inches?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

48 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) of a pyramid is calculated as

V = \frac{1}{3} × area of base × height

here area of base = 24 and height = 6, so

V = \frac{1}{3} × 24 × 6 = 8 × 6 = 48 in³
