A meter stick casts a shadow 2.4 m long at the same time a flagpole casts a shadow 9.7 m long. How tall is the flagpole

Luda [366]

The first thing we are going to do is draw a diagram of the situation to help us to solve the situation.
We an draw tow similar triangle between the length of the shadows and the height of the stick and the pole.
Since <span>meter stick has a length of 1 meter, the height of our smaller triangle is 1 meter. Let </span> $h$ be height of of the pole. Since both triangles are similiar we can establish a proportion between their corresponding sides and solve for $h$ :
$\frac{h}{1} = \frac{9.7}{2.4}$
$h=\frac{9.7}{2.4}$
$h=4.04$

We can conclude that the pole is 4.04 meters tall.

The length of a rectangle is eight more than twice its width. The perimeter is 96 feet. Find the dimensions of the rectangle

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The width of the rectangle is 14'8", and the length is 33'4"

Step-by-step explanation:

We're given two pieces of information:

The length is eight more than twice the width:

$l = 2w + 4$

The perimeter is 96 feet:

$p = 96$

We also need to apply one more piece of information that is not provided here, and that is the relationship between the perimeter of a rectangle, and it's length and width:

$p = 2l + 2w$

We can solve for w by plugging the other two values into the last:

$p = 2w + 2l\\96 = 2w + 2(2w + 4)\\96 = 2w + 4w + 8\\88 = 6w\\3w = 44\\w = \frac{44}{3}\\w = 14\frac{2}{3}$

Now we can find the length by plugging w into the first equation:

$l = 2w + 4\\l = 2(14\frac{2}{3}) + 4\\l = 29\frac{1}{3} + 4\\l = 33\frac{1}{3}$

One third of a foot is four inches, so the width is 14'8" and the length is 33'4"

To make sure our answer is correct, we should plug those numbers back into the area equation and see if we're right:

$p = 2l + 2w\\p = 2(33\frac{1}{3}) + 2(14\frac{2}{3})\\p = 66\frac{2}{3} + 29\frac{1}{3}\\p = 96$

So we know our answer's correct
