Answer:
3 and 1 over 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
We divide 5/6 by 1/4.
5 /6 / 1/4
= 5/6 * 4
= 20/6
= 3 2/6
= 3 1/3.
D = 25 ft is the length of a shadow. L - the length of a tree.
Two angles are 85° and 65° and the third is 180° - ( 65° + 85° ) =
= 180° - 150° = 30°.
We will use the Sine Law:
25 / sin 30° = L / sin 65°
25 / 0.5 = L / 0.9063
25 * 0.9063 = 0.5 L
22.6577 = 0.5 L
L = 22.6577 : 0.5
L = 45.3 ft.
Answer: the approximate length of the tree is 45.3 ft.
Answer=5/16 or 0.3125 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first digit you are choosing from 2 digits
for the second digit you are choosing from 2 digits
for the third digit you are choosing from 2 digits
2*2*2=8
111
110
011
101
000
001
100
010
However......
A number doesn't usually start with a 0 or 0s.
Therefore, if you want 3-digit numbers and not just permutations using 0 and 1, then you must eliminate
011, 000, 001, and 010
Seeing that the first digit can't be 0, you choose from 1, then 2, and then 2 digits again; 1*2*2=4 numbers
You choose which answer best suits your problem.
Recall that A = 1/2bh.
We are given that h = 4+2b
So, putting it all together:
168 = 1/2 b(4+2b)
168 = 1/2(4b + 2b^2)
168 = 2b + b^2
b^2 + 2b - 168 = 0.
Something that multiplies to -168 and adds to 2? There's a trick to this.
Notice 13^2 = 169. So, it's more than likely in the middle of the two numbers we're trying to find. So let's try 12 and 14. Yep. 12 x 14 = 168. So this factors into (b+14)(b-12) So b = -14 or b =12. Is it possible to have a negative length on a base? No. So 12 must be our answer.
Let's check this. If 12 is our base, then according to our problem, 2*12 + 4 would be our height... or 28. so what is 12 * 28 /2?
196. Check.
Hope this helped!
