Mathematics

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:

$60

Step-by-step explanation:

So from the question, we need to find the fixed amount for the tv's. So we have to make an equation, and don't forget to add the extended warranties:

11(x + 25) = 935

x will represent a tv, and the 25 is the extended warranty for a tv, since the questions states 11 tv's with warranties is 935, the equation will look like that. Now lets slove:

11(x + 25) = 935

multiply

11x + 275 = 935

subtract 275 from both sides

11x = 660

divide both sides by 11

x = 60, each tv is $60

Maria is comparing the prices of two window cleaning companies. Company A charges $6 per window and an additional $12 as service
Pani-rosa [81]
Part A: 6w + 12 = 5w + 15

Part B: 6(8) + 12 = 5(8) + 15
48 + 12 = 40 + 15
60 = 55 = Company B equals $55 which is less than $60

Part C: $5 is saved because of the amount of money.
Hope this helps :)
