Make each known side into a ratio like so...
75/6
(Because 75 is the shadow casted by the building, and 6 is the shadow casted by sarah)
and 50/x
(50 is how tall the building is and sarah's height is what needs to be found)
Therefore,
75 50
---- -----
6 x
Do cross products;
50 x 6 = 75 x X
300 = 75x
Divide by 75
x = 4ft
Answer:
a. y = 2/5x + 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
In point-slope form, the equation of a line with slope m through point (h, k) can be written
y = m(x -h) +k
Then a line with slope 2/5 through the point (-3, -1) will have point-slope equation ...
y = (2/5)(x +3) -1
This can be simplified to the desired form:
y = 2/5x +6/5 -1 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses; next, collect terms
y = 2/5x + 1/5
0.08 can be written as 8%
