40 feet = 8 foot shadow

So in order to go from 40 to 8 you divide by 5.
 So if you have a person who casts a 2 foot shadow, you have to multiply by 5.

Your answer would be 10 feet.
Hope I helped :)

Need help with easy/quick probability problems. Do 1-6 and explain how to do one of them
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

P(algebra, then statistics) = 7/80

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of books is 7 + 8 + 5 = 20.

1. P(algebra, then statistics)

The probability that the first book is an algebra book is 7/20.

Carlos then replaces the book, so the total is still 20.

The probability that the second book is a statistics book is 5/20.

Therefore, the total probability is:

P(algebra, then statistics) = 7/20 × 5/20

P(algebra, then statistics) = 7/80

The answer would be B because the sum of the squares of the 2 shorter sides equal the square of the longer side, which is the pythagoream theorem of a^2+b^2=c^2.
