Answer:
22 3/4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram seems to show a 6 1/2 ft person casting a 9 ft shadow at the same time a flagpole is casting a 31 1/2 ft shadow. You want the height of the flagpole.
<h3>Proportion</h3>
Shadow lengths are presumed proportional to the height of the object making them. This means ...
h/(31 1/2) = (6 1/2)/9 . . . . . all lengths in feet
Multiplying by 31 1/2, we get ...
h = (31 1/2)(6 1/2)/9 = (819/4)/9 = 91/4
h = 22 3/4 . . . . ft
The flagpole is 22 3/4 feet tall.
Answer:
40 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
One hour includes 60 minutes
8/60=0.13(3 repeating)
You only need 15 minutes of time
0.13(3 repeating)*15=2
8+2=10 miles
15 minutes is 1/4 of an hour
10*4=40 mph
300 is a multiple of 3,5,1, and 50

Answer:
The value of x is 75
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to find the other angle that doesn't have a number in it.
To find the degrees of the other angle we subtract 155 from 180.
180 - 155 = 25
Now we have to find the value of x. Add 80 and 25 together to get 105. A triangle is going to be 180 degrees. Subtract 105 from 180.
180 - 105 = 75
Now we will add 80, 25, and 75 to check our work.
80+25+75 = 180
