A tree casts a 25 foot shadow. At the same time of day, a 6 foot man standing near the tree casts a 9 foot shadow. What is the a

Ratio of height of the man to the length of the shadow = 6:9 = 2:3
Ratio of height of the tree to the length of its shadow = x:25 = 2:3
x/25 = 2/3
x = (25 x 2)/3 = 50/3 = 16.67

Therefore the approximate height of the tree to the nearest foot is 17 feet.

The question ask to calculate and find the approximate height of the tree to the nearest foot if it has cast a shadow of 25feet and the man also cast a shadow near it at a height of 6 foot. So base on that fact, I came up with an answer of approximately 17 feet. I hope you are satisfied with my answer

Ok, first you need to read a - g and mark down the information you know. Also, this continuous function can look pretty much like anything long as it has the a - g constraints/rule. 

A) We know the domain(x values) is between -10 to infinity
(-10,-9,-8,-7,-6,-5,-4,-3-,2,-1,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, to ---------> infinity)
B) We know the range(y values) is between -6 to infinity
(-6,-5,-4,-3-,2,-1,01,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, to ---------> infinity) 

C) Next we know f(0) = f(4) = 0
So we know when x = 0  that f(0) = 0 or we can say  y = 0. We also know when f(4) = 0 so when x = 4 y = 0. So we have two points (0,0) and (4,0) that our function will be on so plot the two points (0,0) (4,0)

D) It tells us that f(x) (y) is increasing between the x values (-10,-6)  or (-2,2) or (4, to infinity)

E) It tells us that f(x) (y) is decreasing between the x values (-6,-2) or between (2,4)

F) Tells us that f(x) (y) is greater than or equal to between the x values of [-8,-4] or between the x values [0, to infinity) so this lets us know our drawing is going to be above or equal to 0 when we are in the values [-8,-4] or [0, to infinity)

G) Tells us that f(x) (y) is less than 0 when the function / drawing is between the x values of (-10, -8) or (-4,0)  

The picture is what the function could look like. It can be different but needs to following the rules that are given

If y varies directly with x, the constant of variation is . The equation representing this relationship is . What is the value o
Julli [10]

Answer:

Y~x

Y = k × v

Y = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Y~ x

Y = k × X

Since the question isn't complete,we are going to assign figures to complete this very question and move on to other things and you can as well solve questions that are similar to this ones.

Now let's assume that the question says that is 6 when x is 3,what is y when x is 11.

To solve this question above,we need to find the constant of variation which will then enable us to know what y is when x is 11

Y~ x

Y = k × V

When y is 6 and x is 3,k will be

6 = 3k

K= 2

Now when k is 2,x is 11,y Will then be

Y = kx

Y = 2 × 11

Y = 22.

With this procedure,one can find any value of x or y when they have the constant of variation.

If you have a figure assigned to x and y is to be found,the constant of variation will help to get y and vice versa

For the function f(x)=-3x+2, find f(2)=
dsp73

Answer: f(2) = -4

Step-by-step explanation: Here we're given the function f(x) = -3x + 2 and we are asked to find f(2).

In other words, if we put an <em>x</em> into our function, we get a -3x + 2 out so what happens when we put a 2 into the function?

Well if we put a 2 into the function,

that's f(2) and we get -3(2) + 2 out.

Now all we have to do is simplify on the right side.

-3(2) is -6 so we have -6 + 2 which is -4.

So f(2) is -4.
