Answer:
3.4 yards cubed
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume is length x width x height
Length 2 4/5, Width 2, Height 3/5 so 2 4/5 x 2 x 3/5
It looks like they want the answer in decimal form, so you can convert the fractions into decimals.
For the length 2 4/5, you divide the 4 by 5 to get a decimal of .8 so now it's 2.8
For the height of 3/5, you divide the 3/5 & get .6
Now it's 2.8 x 2 x .6 = 3.36 yards cubed which could get rounded up to 3.4 yards cubed
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a linear equation in slope intercept form which is

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
The equation

Has a slope of -1/3 so this means that the slope will be decreasing. A negative linear equation increases as we go left. and decreases as we go right. The y intercept is 2. So this means the graph must pass through (0,2) and when x=0, y must be 2.
In other words, look for a line that the y values increase as we go left and decrease we go right. Also look for a point (0,2) and make sure the graph pass through it.
If you input: 1/0.00000001 in a calculator, the result will be a very large number
so as you get closer to zero, the result of 1/x larger until it becomes infinite (or undefined as some people like to call it) at 1/0
I drew it out below (don't you just love my effort? XD)
You're gonna use the sine trig function to find the length of the shadow
sin26 / 1 = 43 / x; now you cross multiply
sin26 x = 43; divide both sides by sin26
x = 43 / sin26
x = 98 which is the shadow
Hope this helps!
