For both problems, we'll set up equations that help to solve problems dealing with similarity.

For the first one, we can write 50/40 = x/4 (we set this up in the ratio height:shadow). This simplifies to 200 = 40x, which simplifies to x=5 (using the Division Property of Equality).

For the second one, we can do the same thing. We'll set up a ratio for the longest and shortest sides (longest:shortest). This will become 6/8 = 3/x, which simplifies to 6x = 24, which becomes x=4.

So your answers are 5 feet, and 4 (units).

The product of 2 consecutive #s is 4160 what are the numbers?

KengaRu [80]

So the so the product of two consecutive numbers is 4160 or
x(x+1)=4160
distribute
x^2+x=4160
subtract 4160 from both sides
x^2+x-4160=0
find the factor (if you want to know how, just ask in the comments)
(x-64)(x+65)=0
so the answer is x could be 64 or -65
so the number that work are 64,65 and -65,-64

How does the graph of g(x)= 1/x-5+2 compared to the graph of the parent function f(x)=1/x?

Finger [1]

Answer: The graph is shifted to the right by 5 units and shifted up from the parent function.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition, a parent function is the simplest form of a function.

2. You have the following parent function given in the problem:

$f(x)=\frac{1}{x}$

2. The function g(x) is obtained from the function f(x)

$g(x)=\frac{1}{x-5}+2$

Where the subtraction of 5 indicates the horizotanl shift to the left and the addition of 2 indicates the vertical shift up.

3. Therefore, keeping the information above on mind, you can conclude that the answer is: the graph is shifted to the right by 5 units and shifted up from the parent function.
