This is just a basic proportion. 5/8 = x/12. So the 5 foot tall women would have a 7.5 foot shadow.

What is wrong with this problem. 2(n +3) = 2n +3

LekaFEV [45]

Steps to solve:

2(n + 3) = 2n + 3

~Distribute left side

2n + 6 = 2n + 3

~Subtract 6 to both sides

2n = 2n - 3

~Subtract 2n to both sides

n = -3

Best of Luck!

Coffee with sugar and milk added to it can contain up to calories. To consume a maximum of 600 mg if caffeine per day, how many

Marina CMI [18]

We know there is 330 mg of caffeine per 16-ounce serving. So if we want 8-ounce servings:
330 mg : 2 = 165 mg
Also we have to consume a maximum of 600 mg.
165 mg * 3 = 495 mg < 600 mg
165 mg * 4 = 660 mg > 600 mg
Answer: Someone could drink 3 full 8-ounce servings in a day and still stay below the limit.
