1. x = 118 2. x = -54 3. x = -54 4. x = -54
The longer an object, the longer the shadow they cast at a given time of the day and vice versa. This is called direct proportionality. At the same time,
If 15 foot flagpole ---- casts 11 foot shandow
28 foot tree -------- casts ?? foot shadow
The proportion would therefore be:
Length of shadow cast by tree = (28/15)*11 = 20.533 foot.

Answer:
The value of x would be
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
x tons of 10% gravel G mixture is mixed with y ton of 2% gravel G to obtain 5% gravel mixture,
Thus, gravel G in x ton + gravel in y ton = gravel G in the resultant mixture,
⇒ 0.1x + 0.02y = 0.05(x+y),
0.1x - 0.05x = 0.05y - 0.02y
0.05x = 0.03y

Now, resultant mixture is z ton,
i.e. 

From equation (1),




Step-by-step explanation:
previous =£400
present=£504
percentage=(£504-£400)/£504*100
=104/£504*100
=20.63%
