If you need part A, draw a person and label them 6 feet tall and a shadow coming off of him that is five feet long and draw a basketball hoop that and label it X feet tall and draw a shadow coming from it that is 8 feet long. To solve, you use proportions 6/5=X/8 solving this you get X=9.6 feet which is the height of the rim. Therefore, the rim does not meet regulation height, since the required height (10 feet) is greater than the actual height (9.6 feet).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Points: (1, 9) and (9, 3)
Ratio = 2/3
Required
Determine the coordinate of the center
Represent the ratio as ratio
The new coordinate can be calculated using
Where
Substitute these values in the equation above
Hence;
<em>The coordinates of the new center is </em><em></em>
The solution to the given system of equation is (25/7, 6/7)
<h3>System of equation</h3>
Given the system of equation expressed as:
x= - 4y+7 ........... 1
-2y+3x=9 ...........2
Substitute the equation 1 into 2 into have:
-2y + 3(-4y+7) = 9
-2y + 3(-4y) + 3(7) = 9
-2y - 12y + 21 = 9
Collect the like terms
-14y = 9- 21
-14y = -12
y = 6/7
Substitute y = 6/7 into equation 1;
x =-4y + 7
x = -4(6/7) + 7
x= -24/7 + 7
x = -24+49/7
x = 25/7
Hence the solution to the given system of equation is (25/7, 6/7)
