Man height = 5
Shadow height = 7.5
that means shadow is 1.5 against man height (7.5 / 5 = 1.5)

Supposed Tree height is Y
then shadow will be = 1.5 x Y
1.5 x 15 = 22.5.

Answer:

C = 600 + 50s

Step-by-step explanation:

The students are planning to visits the Canada's wonderland. The students will spend a full day at the park.

The entry fee for each student is $50 and the bus cost is $600. Each student will pay $50 for entry into the park.

Let

the number of student  = s

cost of the trip = C

How would I set up this problem?
Sliva [168]
Since in 1990 there are 28%, we need to figure out when it gets to 31%. In addition, since it increases by 0.6% every year, we can say that 0.6x+28 (since 28 is the base value) is the percentage of babies born in wedlock every year. Therefore, to get 0.6x+28=31, we subtract 28 from both sides to get 0.6x=3
Dividing both sides by 0.6, we get x=5=the amount of years it takes to get 31% of babies born in wedlock. Since 1990 is the base value (we start from there!), we add 5 to that to get 1990+5=1995 as the yar

Add or subtract as indicated. reduce to the lowest term. 1 1/3 + 2 1/3
Ann [662]
2 1/3 = 7/3

Both numbers should be improper fractions.

11/3 + 7/3 = 18/3

Now the fractions must be simplified
18 ÷ 3 = 6

So 11/3 + 2 1/3 = 6
