Answer: 11.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the shadow of the building = length of the shadow - distance of the building

= 52 - 32

= 20

Let the height the shadow strike the side of the building be h

then by similar shape rule

h / 20 = 30 / 52

52h = 30 x 20

52h = 600

h = 600/52

h = 11.53846154

h ≈ 11.5

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

\=x=82

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Data

\begin{center}\begin{tabular}{ |c|c|c|c|c|c| }  87& 91& 86& 82& 72&91 \\ 60& 77& 80& 79& 83&96 \end{tabular}\end{center}

Generally the equation for Point estimate \=x is mathematically given by

\=x=\frac{\sum_x}{n}

\=x=\frac{87 +91+ 86+ 82 +72 +91+ 60+ 77 +80+ 79+ 83 +96}{12}

\=x=\frac{984}{12}

\=x=82

Find the coordinates of point P on →AB that partitions the segment into the given ratio AP to PB .
marysya [2.9K]

The line segment AB is divided at point P, which has coordinates P(0,-7.5)

A line segment is a section of a line that connects two locations to create a straight line or we can say that is connects two distinct points together to form a single line. It is extendable to either side.

Given are,

A line segment AB with coordinates of A(0,0 ) and B(-15,0) respectively

Two minor line segments, AP and PB, are created from the line segment AB by the provided point P

We must determine the dividing point's coordinates, or P.

We'll apply the formula provided,

The coordinates of the point P are given by  = (\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2} )

Now, x1 = 0, x2 = 0, y1 = -15, y2 = 0

Putting values in the formula, we get

(\frac{0+0}{2}, \frac{0-15}{2})

(0,-7.5)

Hence, the point P which partitions the line segment AB have coordinates as P(0,-7.5)

The table represents some points on the graph of a linear function.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

B. -\frac{9}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of change of y with respect to x, can be calculated using any two of the pairs of values of the table, say, (-2, 12) and (0, 3).

Rate of change = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Let,

(-2, 12) = (x_1, y_1)

(0, 3) = (x_2, y_2)

Plug in the values

Rate of change = \frac{3 - 12}{0 - (-2)} = \frac{-9}{2} = -\frac{9}{2}
