Your answer is correct. A
Since we know that they have to e similar, it is a 20ft tall flagpole. the shadow of the girl is half of her height, so since the flag pole shadow is 10ft it is simple 10 multiplied by 2
Option B: 5 is the value of f(3)
Explanation:
The equation of the piecewise function is given by

We need to find the value of 
The value of the function f can be determined when
by identifying in which interval does the value of
lie in the piecewise function.
Thus,
lies in the interval
, the function f is given by

Substituting
in the function
, we get,


Thus, the value of
is 5.
Therefore, Option B is the correct answer.
Let's create expressions and equations to model this situation. Let Anthony's age be a.
"Jim is 3 times as old as his cousin, Anthony." Jim's age is 3a.
"The difference in their age is 18." 3a - a = 18
How old is Jim?
Let's solve the above equation for a to first find Anthony's age.
3a - a = 18
2a = 18
a = 9
Remember, Jim's age is represented by the expression 3a. Substitute Anthony's age, 9, into the expression to find Jim's age.
3a
3(9)
27
Answer:
Jim is 27 years old.
