Answer: Length of his shadow is 18 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of tall monument = 64 foot

Length of shadow = 16 feet

Length of pole where Kyle is standing = 6 feet 3 inch = 72 inches

So, we need to find the length of its shadow.

So, according to question, we get that

\dfrac{64\times 12}{16\times 12}=\dfrac{72}{x}\\\\4=\dfrac{72}{x}\\\\4x=72\\\\x=\dfrac{72}{4}\\\\x=18\ feet

Hence, length of his shadow is 18 feet.

Which unit rate corresponds to the proportional relationship shown in the graph?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

1.5 cm/s​

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit rate is the same as the slope.

To find the slope, we use the slope formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Using our points, we have

m = (9-0)/(6-0) = 9/6 = 3/2 = 1.5 cm/s

Is 30/12 and 40/16 equivalent?
Flura [38]
30/12 in simplest form is 5/2 (cause 6 * 5 = 30 and 6 * 2 = 12)
40/16 in simplest form is 5/2 (cause 8 * 2 = 16 and 8 * 5 =40)
so yes they're equivalent;
30/12 = 40/16
Hope that helps :D have a nice day!

What answee is it?? :))))
Nataliya [291]

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is C

We can easily eliminate B and D since Ms. Macdonald isn't starting with 3 rabbits.

We can also eliminate choice A, because 5 to the 3rd power isn't 15.

5 to the 3rd power is 125, therefore the choice is C
