Shadow problems are usually solved with a proportion.
.. oak/(oak's shadow) = joey/(joey's shadow)
.. oak/(12 ft) = (6 ft)/(5 ft)
.. oak = (12 ft)*(6/5) = 14.4 ft . . . . . . . matches selection B

How to find the average squared distance between the points of the unit disk and the point (1,1)
ddd [48]
The unit disk can be parameterized by the function

\mathbf p(r,\theta)=(r\cos\theta,r\sin\theta)

where 0\le r\le 1 and 0\le\theta\le2\pi. The squared distance between any point in this region (x,y)=(r\cos\theta,r\sin\theta) and the point (1, 1) is

(x-1)^2+(y-1)^2=(r\cos\theta-1)^2+(r\sin\theta-1)^2
=(r^2\cos^2\theta-2r\cos\theta+1)+(r^2\sin^2\theta-2r\sin\theta+1)
=r^2(\cos^2\theta+\sin^2\theta)-2r(\cos\theta-\sin\theta)+2
=r^2-2r(\cos\theta-\sin\theta)+2

The average squared distance is then going to be the ratio of [the sum of all squared distances between every point in the disk and the point (1, 1)] to [the area of the disk], i.e.

\dfrac{\displaystyle\iint_{x^2+y^2
=\dfrac{\displaystyle\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}\int_{r=0}^{r=1}[r^2-2r(\cos\theta-\sin\theta)+2]r\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta}{\displaystyle\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}\int_{r=0}^{r=1}r\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta}
=\dfrac{\frac{5\pi}2}\pi=\dfrac52

Find the product. Write your answer in<br> exponential form.<br> 5^7•5^-9•5^-5
MissTica

5^7 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 = 78,125

5^-9 = 5 ÷ 5 ÷ 5 ÷ 5 ÷ 5 ÷ 5 ÷ 5 ÷ 5 ÷ 5 = 0.000000512

5^-5 = 5 ÷ 5 ÷ 5 ÷ 5 ÷ 5 = 0.00032

78,125 × 0.000000512 × 0.00032 = 0.0000128‬

Answer: 0.0000128‬ or 1.28 x 10^-5
