let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to improper, and then check.


\bf \stackrel{mixed}{5\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{11}{2}}
\\\\[-0.35em]
\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\
\begin{array}{ccll}
miles&hours\\
\cline{1-2}
60&1\\[0.8em]
m&\frac{11}{2}
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{60}{m}=\cfrac{~~1~~}{\frac{11}{2}}\implies \cfrac{60}{m}=\cfrac{~~\frac{1}{1}~~}{\frac{11}{2}}\implies \cfrac{60}{m}=\cfrac{1}{1}\cdot \cfrac{2}{11}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{60}{m}=\cfrac{2}{11}\implies 660=2m\implies \cfrac{660}{2}=m\implies 330=m

If a 30-foot silo casts a 20-foot shadow, what is the approximate measure from the tip of the shadow to the top of the silo?
KATRIN_1 [288]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (d)  36 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Use your sense of geometry.

The hypotenuse of a right triangle will never be less than the longest side, and will never be greater than 1.5 times the longest side*.

That means the only reasonable answer choices will be between 30 and 45 feet. There is only one such choice.

The measure is about 36 feet.

__

If you like, you can find a more exact value using the Pythagorean theorem. The distance d of interest is ...

  d^2 = 20^2 +30^2 = 1300

  d = √1300 = 10√13 ≈ 36.0555 ≈ 36 . . . feet

_____

* The longest hypotenuse will be √2 ≈ 1.4142 times the longest right triangle leg when the two legs are equal length.
