Answer:

The length of the image of the segment GH would be 5 units.

Explanation:

You can use the center of dilation as your origin of coordintes.

Thus, the point H would have coordinates (0,0) and the point G (-1,0).

A dilation multiplies the coordinates by the scale factor. Hence:

H = (0,0) → H' = 5 × (0,0) = (0,0)

G = (-1,0) → G] = 5 × (-1, 0) = (-5, 0)

Thus, the length of the image of segment GH would be the distance from 0 to -5 in a number line, which is 5.

Help please I’m confused

Answer:

h = 5.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically these are 2 similar triangles. That means:

Corresponding sides are proportional.

We can set up a ratio of each triangle separately and equate, cross multiply and solve for "h".

h corresponds to 2.4

2.9 corresponds to 1.3

Setting up the ratio and solving for h:

$\frac{h}{2.4}=\frac{2.9}{1.3}\\1.3h=2.4*2.9\\1.3h=6.96\\h=\frac{6.96}{1.3}\\h=5.35$

Rounded to 1 decimal place,

h = 5.4

A person who is 68in tall casts a shadow that is 54in long. At the same moment, a tree casts a shadow that is 18ft long. What is

34kurt

Answer:

22.67 ft is the height of tree.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of a person is 68 in and casts a shadow that is 54 in long.

At the same point, a tree casts a shadow that is 18 ft long.

Now, to find the height of tree.

Let the height of tree be $x.$

If height of a person is 68 in he casts a shadow of 54 in.

So, 68 in is equivalent to 54 in.

Thus, $x$ is equivalent to 18 ft.

Now, to get the height of tree by using cross multiplication method:

$\frac{68}{54} =\frac{x}{18}$

By cross multiplying we get:

$1224=54x$

Dividing both sides by 54 we get:

$22.67=x$

$x=22.67\ ft.$

Therefore, the height of the tree is 22.67 ft.
