Answer: The height of the palm tree is 21 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve this:
Actual height to shadow for both objects. The fraction equivalents must be equal.
6/8 = x/28 . Cross multiply
6(28) = 8x
168 = 8x Divide both sides by 8 (8's "cancel" on the right)
168/8 =8x/8
21 = x . This gives us the tree's height as 21 feet.
<em>Another way to solve this is to use the ratios, but simplify the first fraction</em>
<em>6/8 = 3/4</em>
<em>Then multiply the length of the shadow by 3/4</em>
<em>3/4 × 28 = height</em>
<em>28÷4 = 7 7 × 3 = 21</em>
<em>21 feet= the height of the palm tree.</em>
-25x is the slope
-42 is the y-intercept
<h3>
Answer: 11/13</h3>
============================================================
Explanation:
Add up the four numbers given: 4+8+4+10 = 26 items total
Kick out the 4 black shirts since they are neither blue, nor are they pants.
So we have 26-4 = 22 items that are blue or a pair of pants (or both).
Divide that over the total (26) to get the probability we're after:
22/26 = (11*2)/(13*2) = 11/13
Side note: 11/13 = 0.8462 = 84.62% approximately
