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.
Answer:
5 meters per second
Step-by-step explanation:
First you must find the slope of the graph. Take the rise/run of the function. The graph starts at 8500 meters and goes down to 7500 meters in 200 seconds. the difference between the change in meters is 1000 meters and the change in seconds is 200 seconds. That is 1000/200. This can be simplified to 5/1 which is 5 meters per second.
780 as a percentage of 1.5
=

=52,000 percent of 1.5
1) 0.78
2) 34.28
This is because the number in the 3rd decimal place for both numbers is 5 or above so it is rounded up rather than down.
