Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
AC = length of flagpole = 12 ft
AB = length of shadow = 14 ft
BC = length from the top of the flagpole to the end of the shadow = x ft
Use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of x,
x² = AC² + BC²
= 12² + 14²
= 144 + 196
= 340
x = √340
x = 18.4 ft
Answer:
12. -11
13. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
12. First recall the order of operations (BEDMAS): Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction
For question 12 there is a division and its priority is before other operations in the equation so you must divide 16/-2 first which gives you -8.
From there because addition and subtraction is on the same level of order, you would do the question straight as it is shown (but replace 16/-2 with -8.
Your new equation is -10-8+7 = -11
13. follow the same as above using BEDMAS. It may help to look at it with additional brackets: ((-68)/(-4)) + ((5 x (-3))
- keep in mind there’s an addition between the two
Division and multiplication is on the same level in BEDMAS so first divide -68/-4 = 17
Second multiply 5 x -3 = -15
Now you can combine the two answers using addition: 17 + (-15) = 2
Answer:
The way a proportion is set is as follows;
The Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica is then found as 800 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimension of the distance between Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica = 4 inches
The map scale = 1 inch to 200 miles
To figure out how many miles it is or the actual distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica, we have;
Therefore, we have;
(4 inches × 200 miles)/(1 inche) = Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica
Which gives;
Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica = 800 miles.
3 3/4 =3.75
20.25 divide 3.75 = 5.4
