The ratio of the height (h) of the streetlight to its distance to the end of Laura's shadow is the same as the ratio of Laura's height to her distance from the end of her shadow.
.. h/(12+9) = 5'4"/9
.. h = (21/9)*5'4" = 12 4/9 feet
.. h = 12 ft 5 1/3 inches
The streetlight is 12 ft 5 1/3 inches tall.
Answer:
10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: CP of lemon is $600.
3/4 of lemon sold at 20% loss
Remaining lemon at 20% gain.
Considering the quantity of lemon remain constant.
Cost price of 3/4 of lemon= 
As given, 3/4 of lemon sold at 20% loss.
∴ Selling price of 
Selling price= 
Hence, selling price of 3/4 lemon is $360.
Now, the cost price of remaining lemon 
∴ The cost price of
As given, remaining 
∴ Selling price of 
Selling price of 
Hence, selling price of 1/4 lemon is $180
Loss\profit percent= 
∴ Loss\profit percent= 
Hence, the loss percentage is 10%

Answer:
B. (b x d) - c
Step-by-step explanation:
i. -(a x d) + b
= -(6 x
) + 8
= -3 + 8
= 5
ii. (b x d) - c
(8 x
) - 4
= 4 - 4
= 0
iii. 2(b x f) + a
= 2(8 x
) + 6
= 4 + 6
= 10
iv. (a x e) - c
= (6 x
) - 4
= 2 - 4
= -2
Thus, the expression which is equivalent to 0 is that of option B.
You could make an equivalent fraction by multiplying both numbers by 2.
