At a certain time of day, a 5.5 foot tall man has a 6 foot shadow. if a tree is 19.25 feet tall, what is the length of the shadow of the tree(x=shadow of the tree)

the equation for the problem is...
5.5/6=19.25/x
you then multiply the denominators on both sides...
5.5x=19.25*6
you then solve on one side...
5.5x=115.5
and then divide 5.5 on both sides to leave x alone...
x=21
the shadow of the tree is 21

Can someone help me with factoring? 4x^3 + 43x^2 + 30x
Sergio039 [100]
4x^{3}+43x^2+30x
First in factoring, you must find out what is common in the whole equation
x(4x^2+43x+30)
Now, make 2 sets of parentheses and "split up" the rest of the equation
Try to experiment which numbers work out
We are not subtracting anything so both parentheses are positive
x(4x+3)(x+10)
Therefore, the factored version of 4x^3+43^2+30x is
x(4x+3)(x+10)

Help please I'm so confused ​
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

169.12

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this is correct. First, you want to divide the semi-circle and the rectangle. To find the area of the rectangle, you do 16 x 9 to get 144. To find the area of the semi-circle, you do 3.14x16/2 to get 25.12. Then you want to add 144 and 25.12 to get 169.12. I hope this helps
