Answer:

2:3 unless it wants it in total, then 220:330

Step-by-step explanation:

it gives you the answer with the fraction.  A ratio is basically saying with x:y for every x number of one thing there are y number of another.  In this case we know 2/5 will be green, so how many will be red?  3/5.  So for every 2 greens there are 3 reds.

Another way of looking at it is for the totals.  there are 550 total, so 2/5 of that is green.  2/5 of 550 is 220, while 3/5 is 330  so that means of the 550, the ratio is 220:330.  Kinda like simplifying fractions where 220/550 is the same thing as 2/5

A 5.8-ft-tall person walks away from a 9-ft lamppost at a constant rate of 3.4 ft/sec. What is the rate that the tip of the pers
Dovator [93]

Answer:

9.56 ft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that a 5.8-ft-tall person walks away from a 9-ft lamppost at a constant rate of 3.4 ft/sec.

I've attached an image showing  triangle that depicts this;

Thus; dx/dt = 3.4 ft/sec

From the attached image and using principle of similar triangles, we can say that;

9/y = 5.8/(y - x)

9(y - x) = 5.8y

9y - 9x = 5.8y

9y - 5.8y = 9x

3.2y = 9x

y = 9x/3.2

dy/dx = 9/3.2

Now, to find how fast the tip of the shadow is moving away from the lamp post, it is;

dy/dt = dy/dx × dx/dt

dy/dt = (9/3.2) × 3.4

dy/dt = 9.5625 ft/s ≈ 9.56 ft/sec
