Answer is 6 meters. As a person with height of 1.5 meters casts a shadow of 8 meters which 5.3333... times greater than the real height, using this relation we can find the real height by dividing the length of shadow by 5.3333... So the height of pole is: 32/5.33333 = 6 meters

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is y = 2x+5?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

slope = - \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 2x + 5 is in this form with slope m = 2

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{2}

Mathematics includes the study of such topics as quantity, structure, space, and change. It has no generally accepted definition. Mathematicians seek and use patterns to formulate new conjectures; they resolve the truth or falsity of such by mathematical proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematics is the study of numbers, shapes and patterns. The word comes from the Greek word "μάθημα" (máthema), meaning "science, knowledge, or learning", and is sometimes shortened to maths (in England, Australia, Ireland, and New Zealand) or math (in the United States and Canada). ... Numbers: how things can be counted.

Therefore, Mathematics is the abstract study of topics such as quantity (numbers), structure, space, and change!
