3.2m casts 1.54m shadow.

3.2÷1.54= 160/77 (2.077922077922...)

50.75 × 160/77= 105.454545...

105m to the nearest meter.

Answer:

We have been given an equation $x^2+9x+20=0$

We will factorize it by middle term splitting.

Step 1: $x^2+5x+4x+20=0$

Taking common factors out by clubing first two terms ad last two terms

Step 2: $x(x+5)+4(x+5)=0$

Step 3: $(x+4)(x+5)=0$

Equating both above factors to zero as:

Step 4: $(x+4)=0\Rightarrow x=-4$

And $(x+5)=0\Rightarrow x=-5$ .

Answer:

<em>x = 3.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. <u><em>Add 2 + 7, and you get 9.</em></u>

2. <u><em>Now find what 3 multiplied by what equals 9.</em></u>

3. <em><u>3 x 3 = 9.</u></em>

4. <em><u>Therefore, x = 3.</u></em>

5. <em><u>3 x 3 - 2 = 7.</u></em>

The side lengths of the Australian flag are in a ratio of 1:2. If the flag is 5 feet long, what is it’s height?

jonny [76]

height:length

1:2

x feet: 5 feet

You know the length and the ratio of the dimensions. From the ratio you know that the length is twice the height. So height = 5/2 = 2.5 ft.

I need help to these questions. Convert these fractions to a decimal 7/8 , 4 3/8. Thanks

ehidna [41]

Simple...

you have: $\frac{7}{8}$ and $4 \frac{3}{8}$

Now, the first one is easy just divide it...

$\frac{7}{8} =0.875$

Now....

$4 \frac{3}{8}$ needs to be converted...

Multiply the whole number*denominator...

4*8=32

Now add the numerator....

32+3=35

Now use the original denominator...

$\frac{35}{8}$

Now divide...

$\frac{35}{8}=4.375
$

Thus, your answer.
