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.

Elise is a project manager
gregori [183]

Answer:

£11.85

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, we are told that:

In 2016 she earned a monthly salary of £2,100

In 2017 she had a 3% raise

This means 3% of £2,100

3/100×£2,100 = £63

This means her salary for 2017 =

£63 + £2,100 =£2,163

Step 2

We are told in the question that she worked 42 hours per week for 45 weeks in 2017

Since her monthly pay for 2017 = £2,163

She worked 42 hours per week

There are 7 days in one week

The number of hours she worked per day = 42 hours ÷ 7 = 6 hours per day

4.345 weeks= 1 month

The number of hours she worked per month = 42 hours × 4.345 weeks

= 182.49 hours.

We can say that for 182.49 hours she was paid = £2,163

Her average pay per hour is calculated as:

If 182.49 hours = £2,163

1 hour = represented by Y

Cross multiply

182.49Y = £2,163

Y = £2,163 ÷ 182.49

Y = £11.852704258

Approximately = £11.85

Therefore, Elise Average pay per hour for the year = £11.85
