Answer: 97 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw 2 right triangles KLM and ABC.

ML=3.2 m  ( is a pole)  KL =1.29 m( pole's  shadow).

(The triangle KLM is right because we suppose that pole is staying vertically).

In triangle AB is tower's  shadow= 39.25 m and BC is the height og tower=x meters?

Triangles KLM and ABC are similar .

So ML/KL=x/AB

3.2/1.29=x/39.25

x=3.2*39.25/1.29= approx 97.36  meters= 97 meters

Brandon just bought a new coffee table. The length of the coffee table is 5 more than 3 times the width. If the perimeter of the
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The length is 23 inches and the width is 6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter for a rectangular shape is represented as:

P = 2L + 2W, where L represents length and W represents width

We can represent the length as:

L = 3W + 5

Substituting this into the perimeter function, we get:

P = 2 (3W + 5) + 2W

Substituting 58 for P, we get:

58 = 2 (3W + 5) + 2W

58 = 6W + 10 + 2W

58 = 8W + 10

58 - 10 = 8W + 10 - 10

48 = 8W

48 / 8 = 8W / 8

6 = W

With 6 being the established value for the width, we can substitute this back into the equation for length:

L = 3W + 5

L = 3(6) + 5

L = 18 + 5

L = 23

To check our work, we can substitute both the width and length into the perimeter equation:

P = 2L + 2W

58 = 2(23) + 2(6)

58 = 46 + 12

58 = 58

Therefore, length is 23 inches and the width is 6 inches.
