Answer:

3/14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given specific value for horses,pigs and cows to be 4,3,7 respectively

And we are to find the probability for pigs

So let's add all the given variables together

4+3+7=14

So to find the probability for pigs

3/14

Since the two cannot be divided, therefore the final answer is 3/14

A man 6 feet tall casts a shadow that is 11 feet long. A building casts a shadow of 139 feet long. The building is tall. Round y

dmitriy555 [2]

Given:

Height of man = 6 ft

Height of man's shadow = 11 feet

Height of building's shadow = 139 feet

To find:

The height of the building.

Solution:

We know that the heights of the objects and there shadows are always proportional.

$\dfrac{\text{Height of man}}{\text{Height of man's shadow}}=\dfrac{\text{Height of the building}}{\text{Height of building's shadow}}$

Let x be the height of the building.

$\dfrac{6}{11}=\dfrac{x}{139}$

Multiply both sides by 139.

$\dfrac{6}{11}\times 139=x$

$\dfrac{834}{11}=x$

$75.8181...=x$

$x\approx 75.8$

Therefore, the building is 75.8 feet long.
