First, all the heights have to be converted to similar units, say feet.
Therefore,
Building= 20 feet
Tree = 252*0.083333 = 21 feet
Flagpole = 6*3 = 18 feet
The tallest of the three is the tree and thus should cast the longest shadow. However, it should be noted that at exactly noon when the sun is overhead, all the three will have equal length of shadow (that is, 0 feet long).
Answer:
6 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula is expressed as;
D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²
D = √(2-4)²+(8-2)²
D = √(-2)²+(6)²
D = √4 + 36
AD = √40
AD = 6.32
Hence the approximate distance between the library and the mall is 6 miles

Answer: No, this function is not linear</h3>
This function is a hyperbola. It graphs out two disjoint curves. A linear function produces a single straight line graph. All linear functions can be written in the form y = mx+b. The x being in the denominator is one indicator we cannot write the original equation in the form y = mx+b.
y = 3/x is the same as xy = 3; this tells us every point on y = 3/x has its (x,y) coordinate pair multiply to 3.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1¾ miles/(2⅓ minutes) = (7/4 miles)/(7/3 minutes) = ¾ mile/minute
21 minutes × ¾ mile/minute = 15.75 miles
60 minutes × ¾ mile/minute = 45 miles
