Step-by-step explanation:
an object and its shadow create a right-angled triangle.
2 objects and their shadows create 2 similar right-angled triangles.
that means the angles are the same, and the side lengths of one triangle all correlate with the corresponding side lengths of the other triangle via the same factor.
so,
42 × f = 6
f = 6/42 = 1/7
the length of Joel's shadow is then
20 × f = 20 × 1/7 = 2.857142857... ft
Answer:
6 weeks 27kilo
12 weeks 54 kilo
Step-by-step explanation:
4.5*12=54
4.5*6=27
The line crosses the y-axis at y=4, so will have an equation of the form
... y = (something)·x + 4
The line rises from left to right, so has a positive slope. That is, the "(something)" must be greater than zero.
The only selection that meets these criteria is
... B y = 2x + 4
3 and 2/3 hours.
Multiply the number of hours Dominic spent by the scale factor.
