Answer: 88meters

Step-by-step explanation:

make a direct variation

so if a 2.8 meter building casts a 1.61 shadow then

2.8/1.61

and if a unknown building mark that as x gives a 50.75 shadow then

2.8/1.61=x/50.75

the you cross multiply that would give you 1.61x=142.1

then divide both sides by 1.61 you get x=88.2608696

But since it say round to the nearest meter you round to 88!

Which equation represents a linear function that has a slope of 4/5<br> and a y-intercept of –6?

vredina [299]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=\dfrac{4}{5}x-6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of equation of a linear function:

$y=mx+b$

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have the slope m = 4/5 and the y-intercept b = -6. Substitute:

$y=\dfrac{4}{5}x-6$

Five times the sum of a number and 27 is greater than or equal to six times the sum of that num

stepladder [879]

Question:

Five times the sum of a number and 27 is greater than or equal to six times the sum of that number and 26.

What is the solution set of this problem?

Answer:

$x \leq -21$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

<em>Represent the number with x</em>

So:

$5 * (x + 27) \geq 6 * (x + 26)$

Required

Determine the solution set

$5 * (x + 27) \geq 6 * (x + 26)$

Open Both Brackets

$5 * x + 5 * 27 \geq 6 *x + 6 * 26$

$5x + 135 \geq 6x + 156$

Collect Like Terms

$5x - 6x \geq 156-135$

$- x \geq 21$

Multiply both sides by -1

$x \leq -21$

Hence, the solution set is $x \leq -21$

The distance on a city grid is measured in blocks. On the grid, the coordinates for the location of your house are (2,6). The In

dolphi86 [110]

The answer is C) 16 blocks.

We will use the distance formula for this problem:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

From your house to the internet cafe:

$d=\sqrt{(8-6)^2+(12-2)^2}=\sqrt{2^2+10^2}=\sqrt{4+100}
\\
\\=\sqrt{104}=10.2$

From the internet cafe to your friend's house:
$d=\sqrt{(8-4)^2+(12-8)^2}=\sqrt{4^2+4^2}=\sqrt{16+16}=\sqrt{32}=5.7$

Together, we have 10.2+5.7=15.9, which rounds to 16 blocks.
