Calculate a ratio between shadow of the tend and the real height.
So 15/6=2.5, that means the shadow is always 2.5 longer than the real height.

That means if the shadow of the box is 6ft, then the real height is 6/2.5 = 2.4ft

A choir teacher is dividing 12 sopranos and 9 altos into singing groups. He wants each group to have the same combination of sop
almond37 [142]

Answer:

3 groups

Step-by-step explanation:

Sopranos = 12

Altos = 9

Find the highest common factor of 12 and 9

12 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

9 = 1, 3, 9

The highest common factor of 12 and 9 is 3

Therefore, the choir teacher can only have 3 groups

12 sopranos / 3 groups

= 4 sopranos per group

9 Altos / 3 groups

= 3 altos per group

Each of the 3 groups Will have 4 sopranos and 3 altos each

Shana is climbing a mountain at a constant pace. She rises in elevation by 17.5 feet per minute. After hiking for 30 minutes, a
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The linear equation for Shana's elevation is E = 17.5\cdot t+1640.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the statement, we find that Shana is climbing at constant rate in time and height as a function of time can be represented by linear function:

E = h_{o}+\dot h\cdot t (Eq. 1)

Where:

h_{o} - Initial height above sea level, measured in feet.

E - Elevation above sea level, measured in feet.

\dot h - Climbing rate, measured in feet per minute.

t - Time, measured in minutes.

If we know that E = 2165\,ft, \dot h = 17.5\,\frac{ft}{min} and t = 30\,s. the initial height above sea level is:

h_{o} = E - \dot h\cdot t

h_{o} = 2165\,ft-\left(17.5\,\frac{ft}{min} \right)\cdot (30\,min)

h_{o} = 1640\,ft

The linear equation for Shana's elevation is E = 17.5\cdot t+1640.
