At a particular time, objects and their shadows are proportionate.
Therefore, in figure,
--- (1)
where AB is the height of the lighthouse, BC, its shadow and FD is the height of Zara and DE is her shadow.
From the given information,
BC = 36 feet
FD = 4 feet and DE = 3 feet
(1) becomes


AB = 48
Hence, the height of the lighthouse is 48 feet.
Answer:
5u + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
because 5u does not have any like terms, it stays on its own. the 2 and 4 can be added together because they are the same as eachother, leaving you with 5u + 6:)
hope this helps!
Answer: 0.0475
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = random variable that represents the number of a particular type of bacteria in samples of 1 milliliter (ml) of drinking water, such that X is normally distributed.
Given: 
The probability that a given 1-ml will contain more than 100 bacteria will be:
![P(X>100)=P(\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\dfrac{100-85}{9})\\\\=P(Z>1.67)\ \ \ \ [Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}]\\\\=1-P(Zz)=1-P(Z](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28X%3E100%29%3DP%28%5Cdfrac%7BX-%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D%3E%5Cdfrac%7B100-85%7D%7B9%7D%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%3DP%28Z%3E1.67%29%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5BZ%3D%5Cdfrac%7BX-%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D1-P%28Z%3C1.67%29%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5BP%28Z%3Ez%29%3D1-P%28Z%3Cz%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D1-%200.9525%3D0.0475)
∴The probability that a given 1-ml will contain more than 100 bacteria
0.0475.
Answer:
V' = -0.11552 *V\\= -0.11552(1.8)\\ \\=-0.20794 million per year
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were 3 million barrels of oil in the well; six years later 1,500,000 barrels remain.
i.e. if V stands for volume of oil, then

To find A and k
V(0) = A = 3 million
Hence V = 
V(6) = 1.5
i.e. 

a) Using the above value of k , we have
million per year.
The amount of sugar he will use is 5.22 cups of sugar, and the number of boxes needed to pack the muffins is 13.71 boxes.
<h3>
How do we solve a word problem?</h3>
This word problem question can be solved as follows:
Amount of sugar he will use = 1 1/7 * 4 4/7 = 1.142857142857143 * 4.0.571428571428571 = 5.22 cups of sugar
Number of boxes needed to pack the muffins for the meeting = 4 4/7 * 3 = 4.0.571428571428571 * 3 = 13.71 boxes
