Make a ratio:
<span>
Make sure shadow is in same location on both fractions (either numerator or denominator) </span>
x/90=5/8
Cross multiply:
8x=90x5
8x=450
<span>
x=56.25 feet </span>
Therefore, the approximate height of the building to the nearest foot would be 56.25 feet.
<span>
That makes sense, too, because the woman's shadow is taller than she is, but is less than double her height. </span>The building shadow is taller than the building, but it's less than double the height of the building.
I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN???... i needa think abt this one
Answer:
v = ± sqrt(6/5)
Step-by-step explanation:
v^2+2=8-4v^2
Add 4v^2 to each side
v^2+ 4v^2+2=8-4v^2+ 4v^2
5v^2 +2 = 8
Subtract 2 from each side
5v^2 +2-2 = 8-2
5 v^2 = 6
Divide each side by 5
5v^2 /5 = 6/5
v^2 = 6/5
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(v^2) = ± sqrt(6/5)
v = ± sqrt(6/5)
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
7*x-4-(21)=0
Solve : 7x-25 = 0
Add 25 to both sides of the equation :
7x = 25
Divide both sides of the equation by 7:
x = 25/7 = 3.571
Answer:
you add 17+6 and it would be x=23
