Height of the flagpole = x
distance from flagpole to the mirror = 48 ft
height of Michele = 5 ft
distance from Michele to the mirror = 12 ft
Now, set the proportion.
x/48 = 5/12
48 * x/48 = 5/12 * 48
x = 240/12
x = 20
So, the height of the flagpole is 20 ft.
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!
Let x = the numbers of girls
thus
the numbers of boys = 2x
x + 2x = 27
3x = 27
x = 9
2x = 2 . 9 =18
girls = 9 & boys = 18
Answer:
40320 different ways
Step-by-step explanation:
That problem is a permutation one
We have eight people to occupy one position in a team, without any constraint at all
So
Total number of events = P(8)
P (8) = 8!
P (8) = 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1
P (8) = 40320 different ways
