Make a ratio:
<span>
Make sure shadow is in same location on both fractions (either numerator or denominator) </span>
x/90=5/8
Cross multiply:
8x=90x5
8x=450
<span>
x=56.25 feet </span>
Therefore, the approximate height of the building to the nearest foot would be 56.25 feet.
<span>
That makes sense, too, because the woman's shadow is taller than she is, but is less than double her height. </span>The building shadow is taller than the building, but it's less than double the height of the building.
I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

Step-by-step explanation:
8 - 4(-2) + 5(6)
8 + 8 + 30
=46
Answer:
<u>600 meters</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Case 1 : Speed of 1 m/s</u>
- d = v * t
- d = 1 * t
- d = t [Equation 1]
<u>Case 2 : Speed of 1.5 m/s</u>
- d = v * t
- d = 1.5 * (t - 200)
- d = 1.5t - 300 [Equation 2]
As distance in both cases is the same, equate the values of d from both equations.
- t = 1.5t - 300
- 0.5t = 300
- t = 300 * 2
- <u>t = 600 s</u>
Now, put the value of t in <u>Equation 1</u> to find d.
