The ratio of height : shadow =44/1313

Therefore height of the tree,x=3434*(44/1313)
=115.08 ft

If you meant 13 and 34 as the length of shadows respectively, then also x=115.08 ft

Devin is buying 2 concert tickets. The concert tickets have a regular price of $40 each. Devin has a coupon that gives a 5% disc
Svetach [21]

Given :

Devin is buying 2 concert tickets. The concert tickets have a regular price of $40 each.

Devin has a coupon that gives a 5% discount off of the regular price of the tickets. He will then pay a 10% purchasing fee on the discounted price of the tickets.

To Find :

Devin's total cost of the two tickets after the discount and the fee.

Solution :

Discount on price, D = 40×0.05 = $2 .

Price of product after discount, P = $( 40 - 2 ) = $38 .

Now, total price after adding purchasing fee is :

T = P + (P×0.10)

T = 38 + (38×0.10)

T = 38 + 3.8

T = $41.8

Therefore, Devin's total cost of the two tickets after the discount and the fee is $41.8 .

Hence, this is the required solution.

Subtract. –5.8 – (–8.4) A. –14.2 B. –2.6 C. 2.6 D. 14.2
svp [43]
-5.8 - (-8.4)

When we multiply two negatives they become a positive. In this situation, where there is no other number, you can assume there's basically a 1 in that place. 

-5.8 - 1(-8.4) would be just as correct. (If this helps visually clarify anything.)

So we take that -1 and multiply it by that -8.4. Multiplying 1 against anything leaves it the same, so we just need to change the sign. Two negatives make a positive. 

-5.8 + 8.4

Now we add these together.

This gives us our final answer of 2.6

Then known number in an algebraic expression is
Fed [463]
Unsure of what you're asking.  

If you have an algebraic expression in front of you and see a number there, you could label it as "known" or "a known quantity."  Another word that comes to mind is "constant."

Plz Help meee!!!<br><br>Factor the Trinomial<br><br>x^2+12x+27​
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

(x + 9)(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor 27 so that the factors, when combined, will equal 12:

x² + 12x + 27

x                9

x                3

(x + 9)(x + 3) is your answer.

Check: Use the FOIL method. Multiply the first two terms, the outside terms, the inside terms, and then the last two terms. Combine like terms:

(x + 9)(x + 3) = x² + 3x + 9x + 27 = x² + 12x + 27 (√)
