Answer: 20 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The mirror is set away from the flagpole on the same scale set away from her.
The distance she stand's away from the mirror is 1/4 of the length of the distance between the mirror and the flag pole because she's 1/4 of the flagpole's size.
This means her size x4 is the size for the flag pole. This checks out because 12x4=48
So to find the height we must do 5x4
5x4=20
Answer:
13510 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
I have attached a triangle diagram to depict this situation.
From the diagram, we see that distance between A and B is denoted by x.
Now, from trigonometric ratios in this type of triangle, let's first find y.
6400/y = tan 36
y = 6400/tan 36
y = 8808.84 ft
Now, we can find x from;
6400/(8808.84 + x) = tan 16
6400/tan 16 = 8808.84 + x
22319.452 = 8808.84 + x
x = 22319.452 - 8808.84
x ≈ 13510 ft
We know that 20% of the first type of juice is pure fruit juice and 45% of second type of juice is pure fruit juice.
Now we have to make 30 pints of a mixture that is 35% pure.
Let x be the number of pints of first type of juice and y be the number of pints of second type of juice.
So,
(Equation 1)
Since, 20% of x + 45% of y = 35.3% of 30
(Equation 2)
Solving equations 1 and 2,
we get y=18 and x=12.
So, 12 pints of first type of juice and 18 pints of second type of juice are used.
Answer:
a = b = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar thus ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
10b = 10 ( divide both sides by 10 )
b = 1
and
=
( cross- multiply )
10a = 10 ( divide both sides by 10 )
a = 1
Thus a = 1 and b = 1
The addition property of equality. It says that if you add the same number to each side of the equation, the two sides of the equation will be equal. In this case, the number 8 was added to each side.
Hope this helps :)
