Answer:

8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to look at the relationship between the elephant and its shadow. The elephant is 9 ft tall and the shadow is 3 ft long, making the elephant 3 times larger than the shadow. Using this information, we can assume that the tree is 3 times larger than its shadow. To find the answer, divide 24 by 3, giving you a final answer of 8 feet long.

24 / 3 = 8

Find the area of the shaded region
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

area of shaded region = area of whole figure - area of non shaded region

area of whole figure: The whole figure is a rectangle

The area of a rectangle can simply be calculated by multiplying the width by the length

The given width is 10ft and the given length is 8ft

Hence area of whole figure = 10 * 8 = 80ft²

Area of non shaded region: the non shaded region also creates a rectangle

Like stated previously the area of a rectangle can simply be calculated by multiplying the width by the length

The given width is 5ft and the given length is 8ft

Hence, area of non shaded region = 5 * 8 = 40ft²

Finally we can find the area of the shaded region.

We can easily do this my subtracting the area of the nonshaded region from the area of the whole figure

If we have identified that the area of the whole figure is 80 and the area of the non shaded region is 40

Then, area of shaded region = 80 - 40 = 40ft²
