You need to use a ratio of height (H) to shadow length (L) to solve the first problem. It's basically a use of similar triangles, with two perpendicular sides, and with the shadow making the same angle with the vertical.

6 ft = 72 ins, so that rH/L = 72/16 = 9/2 for the player.

So the bleachers are 9/2 x 6 ft = 27 ft.

For the second problem, 9 ft = 108 in, so that the ratio of the actual linear dimensions to the plan's linear dimensions are 9ft/(1/2in) = 2 x 108 = 216.

So the stage will have dimensions 216 times larger than 1.75" by 3".

That would be 31ft 6ins x 54ft.

Live long and prosper.

Help plz I’m not good at this
Natalka [10]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is A. 1/8</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Let's solve (1/3 * 9/16) / 1 1/2 = x</u>

(1/3 * 9/16) / 1 1/2 = x

9/48 / 1 1/2 = 9/48 * 2/3 = 18/144

18/144, we can simplify dividing by 18 at the numerator and the denominator, this way:

x = 18 ÷ 18/ 144 * 18 = 1/8

<u>The correct answer is A. 1/8</u>

Complete the square to the problem X^2+6x-16=0
marishachu [46]

Answer:

<h2>x = -8 or x = 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\qquad(*)\\\\-------------------------------\\\\x^2+6x-16=0\qquad\text{add 16 to both sides}\\\\x^2+6x=16\\\\x^2+2(x)(3)=16\qquad\text{add}\ 3^2\ \text{to both sides}\\\\\underbrace{x^2+2(x)(3)+3^2}_{(*)}=16+3^2\\\\(x+3)^2=16+9\\\\(x+3)^2=25\Rightarrow x+3=\pm\sqrt{25}\\\\x+3=-5\ \vee\ x+3=5\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\\boxed{x=-8\ \vee\ x=2}
