The equation you can use to solve the problem is;

50/30 = 300/x

Next Cross Multiply

50x = 9000

x = 9000/50

x = 180

The building's shadow is 180 feet tall

Around $634.85 per year

Because:

$32.85+$35(12 months)+$3.5(52 weeks in a year)= Total cost per year
$420 $182

$32.85 + $420 + $182 = $634.85 per year

To make fruit punch for a party, we need 4 1⁄2 gallons of ginger ale, 1 gallon of strawberry juice, 2 3⁄4 gallons of frozen oran

lina2011 [118]

For this case we convert the mixed numbers to fractions:

$4 \frac {1} {2} = \frac {2 * 4 + 1} {2} = \frac {9} {2}\\2 \frac {3} {4} = \frac {4 * 2 + 3} {4} = \frac {11} {4}$

Now we add the fractions:

$\frac{9} {2}+1+ \frac {11} {4} + \frac {1} {8} =$

We find the least common multiple of the denominators. The l.c.m is 8, then we divide by each denominator and multiply the result by each numerator.

$\frac {36 + 8 + 22 + 1} {8} =\\\frac {67} {8} =$

8,375

Thus, the punch recipe implies 8.375 gallons. If we convert to a mixed number we have:

$8 \frac {3} {8}$ gallons

Answer:

$8 \frac {3} {8}$ gallons

Find the value if x and if nessesary express your answer as a simplified radical

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

10 rad 3 / 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x = missing angle of the full traingle

180 - (90 + 60) = x

180 - 150 = x

30 = x

10 rad 3 / 2 = x

this is just my understanding of the problem- im sorry if im incorrect
