You are correct!
Step 1:Write what you know
Madeline's Height: 6 ftMadeline's Shadow: 108 in
Friend's Height: X (we use X as a variable because his height is unknown)Friend's Shadow: 108 in - 1.5 ft 108 in - 18 in 90 in
Step 2:Set up proportions
6 x----- = -----108 90
Step 3:Cross Multiply & Solve
108x = 540x = 5 ft tall
Answer:
Multiply row 1 by
.
Step-by-step explanation:
The augmented matrix of the system of linear equation is described below:
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}2&1&-1&-8\\0&2&3&-6\\-\frac{1}{2} &1&1&-4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D2%261%26-1%26-8%5C%5C0%262%263%26-6%5C%5C-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%261%261%26-4%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Where
, if we need to create
, we need to multiply row 1 by
, that is to say:
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&\frac{1}{2} &-\frac{1}{2} &-4\\0&2&3&-6\\-\frac{1}{2} &1&1&-4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D1%26%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%26-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%26-4%5C%5C0%262%263%26-6%5C%5C-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%261%261%26-4%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Hence, the correct answer is: Multiply row 1 by
.
Lets check...
42/56 = 56/64
cross multiply
(56)(56) = (42)(64)
3136 = 2688...(incorrect)...these are not proportional
proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions
42/56 = 3/4
56/64 = 7/8
as u can see, they are not equivalent fractions...so they are not proportional
Answer:
The other angle would be equal to 133 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
All linear pairs are supplementary angles, which means that they are equal to 180. So we can find the second angle by using the following angle.
47 + x = 180
x = 133
