Answer
Find out the how much did each student recieve .
To prove
Let us assume that each student earned in the bake sell be x .
As given
Three students earned $48.76 at the bake sell.
The students split the earnings evenly i.e earning is divided into three equal parts .
Than the equation becomes
Solving the above
x = $16.25(approx)
Therefore the each student recieve $16.25(approx) .
Hence proved
Most of the information's required for solving the question is already given in the question.
Height of the building that casts a shadow of 20 m = 32 m
Then
Height of the man that casts a shadow of 1.2 m = (32/20) * 1.2 meter
= 3.2 * 1.2 meter
= 3.84 meter
So the actual height of the person casting a shadow of 1.2 meter is 3.84 meters. I hope that the procedure used for solving the problem is easy enough for you to understand. You can definitely use this method in future for solving problems of similar type without requiring any additional help from outside.
slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (70-52)/(8-1)
= 18/7
=2.6
point slope form
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-52 = 2.6(x-1)
distribute
y-52 = 2.6x-2.6
add 52 to each side
y = 2.6x+49.4
y = 2.6x +49
the initial temperature is 49.4 or about 49
and it increases about 2.6 degrees each week
Y=mx+b, m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(7-4)/(6--3)=3/9=1/3
y=x/3 +b, now use either point to solve for b, I'll use (6,7)
7=6/3 +b
7=2+b
b=5 so our line is:
y=x/3 +5 or more neatly...
y=(x+15)/3
