Answer:Cross multiply and solve for x.
x/6 = 5/1.25
let the height of building be h ft
h/6 = 60/15
h = 6(60/15) = 24
the building is 24 ft high
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first let’s covert the ft to in- 5ft is 60 in and 6ft is 72 in. Then we want to set up 2 fractions based on height and shadow, so we have 60/15=x/72 (we put x because that’s what we’re trying to find). Then we do cross multiplication so now we have 15x=4320. We divide 15, so now we have 4320/15=288. So the building is 288 in tall or 24ft tall! Glad to help! :)

Answer:
x=19
Step-by-step explanation:
The consecutive integers will be x, x+1 and x+2 since consecutive integers have a pattern.
So, the equation is x+x+1+x+2=60
Solve:
x+x+1+x+2=60
3x+3=60
Subtract 3 on both sides:
3x+3-3=60-3
3x=57
Divide by 3
3x/3=57/3
x=19
Answer: x<4
Given the inequality:
We want to solve the inequality for x.
First, distribute the bracket on the right side of the inequality.
Next, subtract 10x from both sides of the inequality.
Add 24 to both sides of the inequality.
Divide both sides of the inequality by 6.
The solution to the inequality is x<4.
Answer: option D is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given sequence is a geometric sequence because the consecutive terms differ by a common ratio.
The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as
an = a1r^(n - 1)
Where
a1 represents the first term of the sequence.
r represents the common ratio.
n represents the number of terms.
From the information given,
a1 = 36
r = 12/36 = 4/12 = 1/3
Therefore, the formula for the nth term of the sequence is
an = 36 × 1/3^(n - 1)
an = 36 × 3^-1(n - 1)
an = 36 × 3^(-n + 1)
an = 36 × 3^(1 - n)
