A number is 2/3 of another number. Both added together equals 50.
One of these numbers consists of three parts, and the other consists of two of those three parts. So, there are 5 equal parts in total.
Thus we need to divide 50 by 5. 50 divided by 5 equals <u>10</u>.
The first number, which has three parts, is 30. The second number, which as two parts, is 20.
I hope this makes sense to you. :D Good luck in all your studies!
Remark
Make up a proportion that relates the tree and its properties to the stick and its properties.
Givens
Stick height (s_h) = 4
Stick shadow(s_s) = 2
Tree shadow = t_s = 18
Tree height = x
Formula
s_h / s_s = x / t_s
Substitute and solve.
4/2 = x / 18 Cross multiply
4*18 = 2 * x
72 = 2x Divide by 2
72/2 = x
x = 36
The height of the tree is 36 feet.
Answer:
5.41127
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula we use is d=c/π.
You can try by plugging each ordered pair and seeing if the equation comes out true.
(5, 1)
2 * 5 - 1 = 9
That's correct so C is the correct answer.
