Answer:

Find the post height first. 3/5= 0.8, so the shadow is 80% of the height of the object. Multiply 80% by 27 to get 21.6

The tree is 21.6 meters tall.

the ratio of horses to chickens on a farm is 9:4. If there are a total of 169 animals, how many chickens are on the farm?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

<h2> 52 chickens</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:'

given

we are told that the total number of animals is 169

the ratio of horses to chickens= 9:4

total ratio= 13

Required:

number of chickens

Applying part to all principle, let the number of chickens be x

4/13=x/169

cross multiply

4*169=13*x

divide both sides by 13

x=4*169/13

x=676/13

x=52

There are 52 chickens

Help!!!<br> Slove for x.<br> A.11<br> B.9<br> C.13<br> D.14
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The secants form a proportion where the full length of the secant is the denominator of a fraction where the numerator is the external part of the secant.

7/(x + 7) = 6/(15 + 6)         Cross Multiply after combining

7 / (x + 7) = 6/(21)                

6 * (x + 7) = 7 * 21             Remove the brackets

6x + 42 = 147                   Subtract 42

6x = 147 - 42

6x = 105                           Divide by 6

x = 17.5

I think I've done this correctly. If you find an error, please let me know and I'll open it for editing.
