Height of sculpture/shadow of sculpture = height of tower/shadow of tower

x/12 = 12/16
16x = 12*12
16x = 144
x = 144/16
x = 9

The sculpture is 9 meters tall

Complete the following sentence. The slope of the graph of y = 5 x is ___
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

We conclude that the slope of the graph of y = 5 x is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

Given the line

y = 5x

comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

The slope of the line = m = 5

Therefore, we conclude that the slope of the graph of y = 5 x is 5.

Find the x-intercepts of the quadratic funct<br> f(x) = x2 – 5x – 14
Trava [24]

Answer:

x = - 2, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x- intercepts let f(x) = 0, that is

x² - 5x - 14 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 7)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 7 = 0  ⇒ x = 7

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

Helene is finding the sum (9 10i) (–8 11i). She rewrites the sum as (–8 11)i (9 10)i. Which statement explains the property of a
Andreyy89

She made the mistake of grouping unlike terms and factorizing.

Given that

Helene is finding the sum (9 + 10i) + (–8 + 11i).

She rewrites the sum as (–8 + 11)i + (9 + 10)i.

We have to determine

Which statement explains the property of addition that she made an error in using?

According to the question

The mistake she did is in the second term distributing.

(9+10i) is not equal to (9+10)i

Similarly (-8+11i) is not equal to (-8+11)i.

The correct method she should have done is given below;

Grouping real terms together and imaginary terms together and finding the sum is,

\rm =  (9 + 10i) + (-8 + 11i)\\\\= 9+10i-8+11i\\\\= (9-8) +(10i+11i)\\\\=1+21i

Hence, she made the mistake of grouping unlike terms and factorizing.
