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.

Lee wants to place 48 photographs on a wall at school. He puts the photographs into 8 equal rows. How many photographs are in ea
yan [13]

There are 48 photographs in total and he puts them inn 8 equal rows. With this, you have to divide the total amount of photographs (48) by the amount of equal rows (8) to see how many photographs are in each row.

48/8 = 6 photographs in each row.


To check, you can simply do the inverse operation which would be:

6 x 8 = 48

As you can see, the total of 48 still remains.

The answer is:

There are 6 photographs in each row.

Determine the equation of the line parallel to the line y=34x+2
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

y = 34x - 139 (y = 34x + 2)

y = \frac{3}{4}x - 6 (y = 3/4x +2)

Step-by-step explanation:

(I'm not sure if the two equations were the same or not, but I provided the answers just in case.) Parallel lines are two lines that have the same plane and slope but never intersect. To find the equation, use the formula y - y_{1} = m (x - x_{1})
