Answer:

The answer to your question is:  L = 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

man = 6 ft

man shadow = 5 ft

lamppost shadow = 25 ft

lamppost height = ? = L

Process

                   \frac{6}{5} = \frac{L}{25}

                    L = \frac{6 x 25}{5}

                    L = \frac{150}{5}

                           L = 30 ft

larisa86 [58]
(f o h) = -(x - 3/3) - 1
(f o h) = (-x + 3)/3 - 1
(f o h)(1) = (-1 + 3)/3 - 1
(f o h)(1) = 2/3 - 1
(f o h)(1) = -1/3

Tom plants 3 seeds.
Rasek [7]

Answer:

A. 64/125

B. 124/125.

Step-by-step explanation:

A).  As the events ( germinate or not germinate) are independent we multiply the probabilities.

Prob(All seeds germinate) = 4/5*4/5*4/5 =  64/125.

B). Probability of at least one germinating =  1 - probability that none germinate

Probability of  1 seed not germinating = 1 -45 = 1/5.

So Prob(at least one germinating)

= 1 - (1/5 * 1/5 * 1/5)

= 1 - 1/125

= 124/125.
