First, all the heights have to be converted to similar units, say feet.
Therefore,
Building= 20 feet
Tree = 252*0.083333 = 21 feet
Flagpole = 6*3 = 18 feet
The tallest of the three is the tree and thus should cast the longest shadow. However, it should be noted that at exactly noon when the sun is overhead, all the three will have equal length of shadow (that is, 0 feet long).
Answer:
72.25
Step-by-step explanation:
12.5 x 8.5 = 106.25
5 x 6.75 = 33.75
106.25- 33.75 = 72.25
1764 inches cubed. First you multiply 1.5 times 12 so that it is in inches. Then u get 18. U multiply 14 by 18 by 7 and u get 1764.
Answer:
a = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x + 1 ......(1)
Going through y - y1 = m(x - x1)
m is slope and it is 2
y1 = 9 and x1 = a
y - 9 = 2(x - a)
y - 9 = 2x - 2a
y = 2x - 2a + 9 ........(2)
Equating (1) and (2)
2x + 1 = 2x - 2a + 9
Collecting like terms
2x - 2x + 2a = 9 - 1
2a = 8
a = 8/2
a = 4
