Answer: The height of the building is 6.49 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be translated to:

"A building projects a 7.5 m shadow, while a tree with a height of 1.6 m projects a shadow of 1.85 m.

Which is the height of the building?"

We can conclude that the ratio between the projected shadow is and the actual height is constant for both objects, this means that if H is the height of the building, we need to have:

(height of the building)/(shadow of the building) = (height of the tree)/(shadow of the tree)

H/7.5m = 1.6m/1.85m

H = (1.6m/1.85m)*7.5m = 6.49m

The height of the building is 6.49 meters.

A regular decagon has 10 sides. How many reflectional symmetries does a regular decagon have?
lina2011 [118]

The rule for regular polygons are very easy. The number of reflectional symmetries is same as the number of sides. Regular polygons have all sides the same length and all angles same. Reflection symmetry means that you can fold the shape along that line and it will match up.

For this question, we want the number of reflectional symmetries of a regular decagon. Decagon is a 10 sided figure. Hence, the number of reflectional symmetries is 10.

There are 5 symmetry lines from one vertex to opposite vertex and 5 more symmetry lines form midpoint of one side to midpoint of opposite side.

How do I solve this word problem?

Answer:

  • 280 student tickets
  • 520 adult tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

You may recognize that you are given two relationships between two unknowns. You can write equations for that.

You are asked for numbers of adult tickets and of student tickets. It often works well to let the values you're asked for be represented by variables. We can choose "a" for the number of adult tickets, and "s" for the number of student tickets. Then the problem statement tells us the relationships ...

  a + s = 800 . . . . . . 800 tickets were sold

  12.50a + 7.50s = 8600 . . . . . . . revenue from sales was 8600

(You are supposed to know that the revenue from selling "a" adult tickets is found by multiplying the ticket price by the number of tickets: 12.50a.)

___

You can solve these two equations any number of ways. One way is to do it by <em>elimination</em>. We can multiply the first equation by 12.50 and subtract the second equation:

  12.50(a +s) -(12.50a +7.50s) = 12.50(800) -(8600)

  5s = 1400 . . . . simplify. (The "a" variable has been eliminated.)

  s = 280 . . . . . . divide by 5

Then the number of adult tickets can be found from the first equation:

  a + 280 = 800

  a = 520

280 student tickets and 520 adult tickets were sold.
