Set it up as a proportion. start with the smaller numbers, 6 ft friend and 4 ft shadow. 4/6 reduces to 2/3.  so 2/3= 24/x.   the easiest way to finish the problem is to divide by 2, and multiply by 3. for instance- 24/2= 12. 12*3= 36, so the building is 36 feet tall. to check plug it back in, is 2/3= 24/36?

\huge \boxed { \sf \: Answer}

We have to use the formula:

(ab) ^{n}  =  {a}^{n}  {b}^{n}

So,

(5 \times 9) ^{12}  \\  =  {5}^{12} . 9^{12}

Also, it will be

45^{12}

Hope you could understand.

A farmer wants to plant an apple orchard. His design consists of 10 rows of trees, where each row is 29.79 feet long. When he ge
Elis [28]
First divide 29.79 feet by 6
\frac{29.79}{6} = 4.97
But since you can't plant only a fraction of a tree, you can plant a maximum of 4 trees per row.
Now there are ten rows so...
10×4 = 40
You can plant 40 trees at the maximum.

1.) Determine whether the ordered pair is a solution of the given system.
Sonbull [250]
In the ordered pair (2, 12), x = 2 and y = 12.
Substitute these values into each inequality to see if the resulting inequality is true. 
y > 2x + 4 
12 > 2(2) + 4    Twelve is greater than 2 times 2 plus 4 ...hmmm
12 > 4 + 4
12 > 8               Twelve is greater than 8 ....this is TRUE...go to the next inequality
y < 3x + 7
12 < 3(2) + 7    Twelve is less than 3 times 2 plus 7 ...interesting
12 < 6 + 7
12 < 13             Twelve is less than 13 ... this is TRUE also 
Therefore; the answer is b. Yes
It must create a true inequality for BOTH inequalities in order for the ordered pair to be a solution
