Proportion:- 

 27       4.5
------ =  -------
  x          5

x = height of tree.

4.5 · x = 27 · 5
4.5 · x = 135

135 ÷ 4.5 = 30 

SO,

x = 30

The tree is 30 ft long.

Hope i helped ya!!

PLEASE HELP QUICK 100 POINTS
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Change per week: $20

Starting amount of money: $550

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given equation</u>:

y=550+20x

where:

  • x = number of weeks
  • y = total account balance

<u>Change per week</u>

As the variable x represents the number of weeks, its coefficient represents the change per week in the amount of money.

Therefore, the change per week in the amount of money in the account is $20.

<u>Initial Balance</u>

The starting amount of money in the account (initial balance) will be the value of y when x = 0:

\implies y=550+20(0)=550

Therefore, the starting amount of money in the account is $550.

A sphere is inscribed in a cylinder. Use complete sentences and geometric formulas to compare the surface area of the sphere and
Papessa [141]

Answer:

1 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When a circle is inscribed in a cylinder, the height of the cylinder is equal to the diameter of the sphere and the radius of the cylinder is same as that of the sphere.

Let the radius of sphere is r.

height of cylinder, h = 2r

radius of cylinder = r

Surface area of sphere, A = 4πr²

lateral surface area of cylinder, A' = 2 πrh

A' = 2πr x 2r = 4πr²

The ratio of surface area of sphere to the lateral surface area of cylinder is 1 : 1.
