Set up a proportion:

6 feet over 11 feet long equals x feet over 33 feet long

6/11 = x/33

198 = 11x

x = 18

The height of the tree is 18 feet tall

The man's height in ratio to the shadow casted is 6:11. Each feet of the man is 1.83333333 feet to the shadow. Divide 33 feet of the shadow by 1.83333333 to obtain 18 feet of the height of the tree.

castortr0y [4]

Answer:  In set theory, the union (denoted by ∪) of a collection of sets is the set of all elements in the collection. It is one of the fundamental operations through which sets can be combined and related to each other.

A U B U C = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 }

Step-by-step explanation:

A = {1, 2, 5, 7}

B = {3, 4, 6, 7}

C = {0, 5, 8, 9}

A U B U C = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 }

What is the factorization of the polynomial below?
katrin [286]

Answer:

A. (2x + 5)(2x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor out the polynomial given.

(4x² - 25) = (2x - 5)(2x + 5)

Check: Use the FOIL method.

(2x)(2x) = 4x²

(2x)(5) = 10x

(2x)(-5) = -10x

(-5)(5) = -25

Simplify. Combine like terms: 4x² + 10x - 10x - 25 = 4x² - 25

A. (2x + 5)(2x - 5) is your answer
