Height of the woman = 5 ft
Rate at which the woman is walking = 7.5 ft/sec
Let us assume the length of the shadow = s
Le us assume the <span>distance of the woman's feet from the base of the streetlight = x
</span>Then
s/5 = (s + x)/12
12s = 5s + 5x
7s = 5x
s = (5/7)x
Now let us differentiate with respect to t
ds/dt = (5/7)(dx/dt)
We already know that dx/dt = 7/2 ft/sec
Then
ds/dt = (5/7) * (7/2)
= (5/2)
= 2.5 ft/sec
From the above deduction, it can be easily concluded that the rate at which the tip of her shadow is moving is 2.5 ft/sec.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
dont know sry
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not sure what you meant after alligators, if it was or or for, but I think it was for so I'm going with that. If 60 increase every 5 years, it would be 60 over 5 (in fractions). So I would do 60 divided by 5, which would be 12. So that means 12 increase every year. I'm not sure what mean meant either, if you're talking about the mathematical mean, but you can't solve the mean in this problem. The Answer: The yearly change in the alligator population would be 12.
9 = -7-2y
9 +7=16
16/-2 -2y/-2
-8 = y
