A tree stands 22 feet tall and is 382 feet from a building. The tree casts a shadow that is 40 feet long. How tall is the buildi ng? I got 211 feet, but I do not think that is correct. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?
I set it up like this h/382=22/40 Thank you!

Yes, you are correct to use proportions because they are similar triangles.

I believe 8 is the answer
13 because you do 18-8 and you get 10 and divide that by 2 and you get 5 then add 5 to 8 and you get 13 and subtract 5 from 18 and you get 13 as well. Hope that helps
Answer:
y+1=-5/7(x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(4-(-1))/(-3-4)
m=(4+1)/-7
m=5/-7
m=-5/7
y-(-1)=-5/7(x-4)
y+1=-5/7(x-4)
The answer is b! Hope this helped
