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.

The answer is <span>mean = 13,027; median = 12,200; no mode
</span>
Let's rearrange values from the lowest to the highest:
11350, 12050, 12200, 13325, 16211

<span>The mean is the sum of all values divided by the number of values:
</span>(11350 + 12050 + 12200 + 13325 + 16211)/5 ≈ 13027

The median is the middle value. If there is an odd number of data, then the median is the value in the middle. In the data set 11350, 12050, 12200, 13325, 16211, the median (the middle value) is 12200

<span>The mode is the value that occurs most frequently. Since none of the number does not occur most frequently, there is no mode.

Mrs.Kunkleman asks her students to write the Pythagorean theorem in their own words
masha68 [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem can be understood as a mathematical relationship between the sides of a right triangle that helps to understand geometric problems in real situations, such as finding measurements, calculating areas, etc.

The theorem says that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other sides.

In a right triangle the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle, on the side opposite to its longest angle, and the other two sides will be the sides. So the Pythagorean theorem formula is:

a² = b² + c²

where a represents the hypotenuse and b and c the other sides.
