Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle OBC is congruent to triangle OBA (SAS ---- side angle side)
Inverse variation is of the form:
y=k/x, which we can express as:
yx=k we are given the point (2/3, 7) so we can solve for k
7(2/3)=k
14/3=k
y=14/(3x), so when x=7/3
y=(14/3)/(7/3)
y=(14/3)(3/7)
y=2
Hello,
2 points of the line: (2,0) and (0,3)
Answer:Cross multiply and solve for x.
x/6 = 5/1.25
let the height of building be h ft
h/6 = 60/15
h = 6(60/15) = 24
the building is 24 ft high
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first let’s covert the ft to in- 5ft is 60 in and 6ft is 72 in. Then we want to set up 2 fractions based on height and shadow, so we have 60/15=x/72 (we put x because that’s what we’re trying to find). Then we do cross multiplication so now we have 15x=4320. We divide 15, so now we have 4320/15=288. So the building is 288 in tall or 24ft tall! Glad to help! :)
