Answer:
22 3/4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram seems to show a 6 1/2 ft person casting a 9 ft shadow at the same time a flagpole is casting a 31 1/2 ft shadow. You want the height of the flagpole.
<h3>Proportion</h3>
Shadow lengths are presumed proportional to the height of the object making them. This means ...
h/(31 1/2) = (6 1/2)/9 . . . . . all lengths in feet
Multiplying by 31 1/2, we get ...
h = (31 1/2)(6 1/2)/9 = (819/4)/9 = 91/4
h = 22 3/4 . . . . ft
The flagpole is 22 3/4 feet tall.
Answer:
108 ft
Correct me, if I am wrong :)
have a great day!
Thanks!
Graphs like these (lines) come in the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. Y intercept is where the graph intersects the y axis so the value would be 5
1.) First plug in the values for m and A:

--> 
Isolate b: 
b = 1999
So your answer is the first option.
2.) Admission costs $5.25, so even if you don't go on any rides, you will still have to pay $5.25. This means that for this problem, 5.25 will be the b value. If each ride costs $2.50, then this means it is $2.50x for the cost of x rides. The total cost will then be
.
3x+17=2x+23
5x=40
40/5=8
x=8
