Answer:
103= p small
plarge = 123
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the the ratio of the areas is the scale factor squared/
Larger triangle over smaller triangle
72
----- = scale factor ^2
50
simplify by dividing by 2 on top and bottom
36
----- = scale factor ^2
25
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(36)
-------------- = sqrt(scale factor ^2)
sqrt(25)
6
-------------- = scale factor
5
The ratio of the perimeters is the scale factor
p large 6
-------------- = ----------------
p small 5
Using cross products
6 p large = 5 p small
We know the sum is 226
p large + p small = 226
p large = 226 - p small
We have 2 equation and 2 unknowns
6 p large = 5 p small
Substitute for p large
6 (226 - p small) = 5 p small
1356 - 6 p small = 5 p small
Add 6 p small to each side
1356 = 11 p small
divide by 11
1356/11 = p small
P large = 226-1356/11
p large = 2486/11-1356/11
plarge = 1130/11
The solution requires whole number answers so
1356/11 = p small
123.27 which rounds to 123
plarge = 1130/11
plarge = 102.7272 = 103
Answer:
176.39 inches or
14.70 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the right triangle made by Kristen, ground and shadow.
This triangle has one leg as 64 inches.
Next consider the right triangle formed by street light, ground upto shadow tip.
The two triangles have common angle of elevation and also another angle as 90 degrees.
Hence the two triangles would be similar
Also if A is the angle made by hypotenuse of both triangles with the ground we have
This value also equals by bigger triangle as
From these two we get
h = height of street light =
Answer:
18550 - 10x
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Cost of admission in Advance = $25
Cost of admission at the door = $35
Number of people who paid in advance = x
Total number of tickets sold = 530
Total amount made from ticket sales will be :
(Number who paid in advance * cost) + (number who paid at the door * cost)
(25 * x) + (530 - x) * 35
25x + 18550 - 35x
18550 - 10x
