We have: 2/25= 24/?

Cross multiply:
2*?= 25*24
⇒ 2*?= 600
⇒ ?= 600/2
⇒ ?= 300

The length of the window is 300 ft~

A falling object travels a distance given by the formula d=3t+5t2, where d is measured in feet and t is measured in seconds. How

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

<em>4.52secs</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of a falling object expressed as;

d=3t+5t^2

If the object travel 84 feet, we are to find the time t it takes to travel. On substituting;

84 = 3t+5t^2

3t+5t^2 - 84 = 0

t = -5±√25-4(3)(-84)/2(3)

t = -5±√25+1008/6

t = -5±32.14/6

t = -5+32.14/6

t = 27.14/6

<em>t = 4.52 secs</em>

<em>Hence it will take 4.52secs for the object to travel 84feet</em>

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The real distance from shop to store is 24 kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance from the Bake Stars Cafe to the restaurant supply store on map = 3 cm

Also Given:

Scale of the map 1 cm = 8 km

We need to find the real distance from the shop to the store.

Solution:

Now we know that;

Distance from shop to store on map =3 cm

1 cm = 8 km

3 cm = Real distance from shop to store

By using Unitary method we get;

Real distance from shop to store = $8\times3 =24 \ km$

Hence The real distance from shop to store is 24 kilometers.
