Answer:

The answer to your question is: 48.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

See the picture below

Use the Thales's theorem to solve this exercise

x / 27 = 45 / 25

x = 45(27) / 25

x = 1215 / 25

x = 48.6 ft

A stack of 6 bricks is 2 feet high. How high is a stack of 20 bricks?

Korolek [52]

60.

The question gives you the fact that 6 bricks is 2 feet high.

What do you do to get from 2 to 20?
You multiply by 10.

Since you multiplied one thing by 10, you must do it to the other side so it remains balanced.

2 ft x 10ft = 20ft

6 bricks x 10 bricks = 60 bricks

Answer:

Therefore,

$a_{21}=2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&6&9\\2&4&8\\\end{array}\right]$

To Find:

a₂₁ = ?

Solution:

Let,

$A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a_{11}&a_{12}&a_{13}\\a_{21}&a_{22}&a_{23}\\\end{array}\right]$

We require ' a₂₁ ' i.e Second Row First Column Element

So on Comparing we get

∴ $a_{21}=2$

Therefore,

$a_{21}=2$
