Remark
Make up a proportion that relates the tree and its properties to the stick and its properties.
Givens
Stick height (s_h) = 4
Stick shadow(s_s) = 2
Tree shadow = t_s = 18
Tree height = x
Formula
s_h / s_s = x / t_s
Substitute and solve.
4/2 = x / 18 Cross multiply
4*18 = 2 * x
72 = 2x Divide by 2
72/2 = x
x = 36
The height of the tree is 36 feet.
Answer:
c) 8.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the coordinates of the two points.
(0,8) and (7,3)
Formula:
√(x₁ - x₂)² + (y₁ - y₂)²
Substitute:
√(0 - 7)² + (8 - 3)²
√(-7)² + (5)²
√(49) + (25)
√(74) ≈ 8.6
cost of pencil = x = 0.07
and cost of eraser = y = 0.03
Step-by-step explanation:
let cost of pencil = x
and cost of eraser = y
So, we have equations:
Solving both equations to find value of x and y
Let:
Multiply eq(1) with 4 and eq(2) with 3 and subtract
Putting value of x in equation 1:
So, x= 0.07 and y = 0.03
cost of pencil = x = 0.07
and cost of eraser = y = 0.03

w + -11 = 1.3
Reorder the terms:
-11 + w = 1.3
Solving
-11 + w = 1.3
Solving for variable 'w'.
Move all terms containing w to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '11' to each side of the equation.
-11 + 11 + w = 1.3 + 11
Combine like terms: -11 + 11 = 0
0 + w = 1.3 + 11
w = 1.3 + 11
Combine like terms: 1.3 + 11 = 12.3
w = 12.3
Simplifying
w = 12.3 <--- (Answer)
