Answer:

D. 914 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the distance that a person can see on a clear day from the upper observation platform of the Eiffel tower in Paris. We are then required to estimate the height of the upper observation platform using the formula;

d=\frac{5}{6}\sqrt{h}

Where d is the distance and h the height of the upper observation platform. The first step would be to solve for h, that is make h the subject of the formula in the above equation;

We multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 5/6 which is 6/5;

\sqrt{h}=\frac{6}{5}d

The next step is to eliminate the square root on the Left Hand Side of the equation by squaring both sides;

h=1.44d^{2}

Given d is 25.2, h becomes;

h=1.44*25.2^{2}\\h=914.4576

To the nearest whole number, h becomes 914

<h3>What is proportion?</h3>

Proportion can be defined as the mathematical comparison of two numbers.

These numbers could be numbers, elements, set or people

From the information given, we have that;

  • The globe is 3 feet and casts a shadow of 8ft
  • The woman cast a shadow of 16ft and is x feet tall

So,

if the globe is 3 foot tall and casts a shadow of 8ft

Then the woman is x foot tall to cast a shadow of 16ft

cross multiply

8x = 24

Make 'x' the subject

x = 48/ 8

x = 6 foot

Thus, the woman is 6 foot tall

4(x-3)=2(3x+1) 2 solve for x
Katarina [22]
Hi there!

Th' Eqn. is :-

4 (x - 3) = 2 (3x + 1)

=> 4x - 12 = 2 (3x + 1)

=> 4x - 12 = 6x + 2

Combine th' like terms :-

=> 4x - 6x = 2 + 12

=> - 2x = 14

=> x = \dfrac {- 14}{2}

=> x = - 7

Hence, The required answer is : x = - 7

~ Hope it helps!
