Let s = shadow we are looking for.

40/200 = 25/s

Solve for s.

200(25) = 40s

5000 = 40s

5000/40 = s

125 = s

The answer is 125 feet.

a fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. A delivery of 3 large boxes and 2 small boxes has a t
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

x = the wight of the large box

y = the weight of the small box

A delivery of 3 large boxes and 2 small boxes has a total weight of 73 kilograms.

3x + 2y = 73

A delivery of 8 large boxes and 4 small boxes has a total weight of 177 kilograms.

8x + 4y = 177

by solving the system of equations

3x + 2y = 73

8x + 4y = 177

we find

x = 15.5 kg

y = 13.25 kg

the large box weights 15.5 kg.

the small box weights 13.25 kg.

Is there a difference between the 80th percentile and the top 80%?
Aleksandr [31]
<span>Actually, yes there is. Being in the 80th percentile means that you are smart than 80% of the people (i.e. out of 100 people, you would be smarter than 80 of them). However being in the top 80% means that you are a part of the 80 smartest people out that same 100. </span>

Use the exterior angle theorem to find the value of x in the triangle below.
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the definition of an exterior angle of a triangle,

"Measure of the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of measures of the opposite interior angles"

m∠STP = m∠SWT + m∠STW

Substitute the measures of the angles from the picture attached,

15x = (7x + 1) + (7x + 6)

15x = (7x + 7x) + (1 + 6)

15x = 14x + 7

15x - 14x = 7

x = 7

Therefore, Option A will be the correct option.
