A floodlight red light at ground level Shines on a 4 ft tall Bush that is 6 ft away the bush cast a shadow on a building that is

24 feet away from it what is the height of the Shadow
Mathematics
1 answer:
Lerok [7]3 years ago
7 0

Set up the proportion as follows: \frac{bush (height)}{bush (length)} = \frac{building (height)}{building (length)}, then cross multiply to solve.

\frac{4}{6} = \frac{x}{24}

4(24) = 6(x)

4(4) = x         <em>(divided both sides by 6)</em>

16 = x

Answer: 16 ft

5. Walker is reading a book that is 792 pages. He reads
masya89 [10]
<h2>Forming Equations from Word Problems</h2>

To form equations from word problems, we can derive mathematical operations as well as variables from the given information.

In this case, each time Walker reads a certain number of pages, we subtract that from the total number of pages left to know how many pages is left to read.

<h2>Solving the Question</h2>

<em>Let r represent the pages left to read.</em>

<em />

792 pages in total

  • ⇒ <em>r</em> = 792

Walker reads 15 pages a day during the week and 25 pages a day during the weekend.

  • There are 5 weekdays, and he reads 15 pages each of those days. ⇒ <em>r</em> = 792 - 5×15
  • There are 2 weekend days, and he reads 25 pages each of those days.
    ⇒ <em>r</em> = 792 - (5×15 + 2×25)

5 weeks have passed

  • Multiply the terms representing the number of pages he reads a week by 5, for 5 weeks.
    ⇒ <em>r</em> = 792 - (5×15 + 2×25)×5

<h2>Answer</h2>

<em>r</em> = 792 - (5×15 + 2×25)×5

In a for loop, is it possible to use indexing?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

A for loop basically relies on repeating the same code for a pre-set number of times. During which you can make any code repeat inside of it, including indexing through a type of list. Many times a for-loop will use the indexes in a list to calculate the number of times that the loop has to repeat. This is usually done in order to search or apply changes in an array of other types of data structures that have countless values stored in it.
