Answer:
19. 5 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
Shadow of tree = 26 feets
Height of flower = 3 feets
Shadow of flower = 4 feets
Height of sun Innthe sky:
Shadow of flower / height of flower
= 4/3 = 1.333333
Height of tree:
Shadow of tree / height of sun
26 feets / 1.33333
= 19.5 feets
Hence, height of tree = 19.5 feets
Answer: (D) 9
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
This is an isosceles triangle. Since the legs are congruent, then the base angles are congruent.
9x + 3 = 84
<u> - 3 </u> <u> -3 </u>
9x = 81
<u>÷9 </u> <u>÷9 </u>
x = 9
If you visualize the problem, there are two concentric circles, the pool, and the pool plus the walkway. So, we have to subtract the area of these two concentric circles to find the walkway.
Bigger circle: Pool plus walkway
----------------------------------
diameter = 18 + 4(2) -- this is because there is 2 ft of walkway at each far end
diameter = 26 ft
Area = pi*(26/2)^2
Area = 530.93 ft2
Smaller circle:pool
---------------------
diameter = 18 ft
Area = pi*(8/2)^2
Area = 50.27 ft2
Area of walkway
----------------
A = 530.93 - 50.27
A = 480.66 ft2
Then the cost would be
Cost = $4.25 * 480.66
Cost = $2,042.81
It could possibly be one.
