5 'parts' of the total company staff are men, and 8 'parts' are women.
That's 13 'parts' all together, comprising 364 people.
So each 'part' is 364/13 = 28 people.

Men = 5 'parts' = 5 x 28 = <u>140 men</u>

Women = 8 'parts' = 8 x 28 = <u>224 women</u>

<em><u>Check:</u></em>

140/224 = 70/112 = 35/56 =<em> </em><em>5/8</em>

140 + 224 = <em>364</em>

yay !

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the height by use Pythagoras theorem on the right triangle:

h = sqrt (5^2 - 4^2)

= sqrt 9

= 3.

Volume of the prism = area of the triangle * length

= 1/2 * 3 * 4 * 10

= 1/2 * 12 * 10

= 60 cm^3.

Total area = area of 2 triangles + area 0f 3 rectangles

= 2 * 1/2 * 3 * 4 + 3 * 10 +  4 * 10 + 5 * 10

= 12 + 30 + 40 + 50

= 132 cm^2.

A tree casts a shadow 27 m long. At the same time, the shadow cast by a 66-cm tall statue is 56 cm long. Find the height of the
Nata [24]
\frac{height _{1} }{shadow_{1}} =  \frac{height _{2} }{shadow_{2}}

\frac{height _{1} }{27m} = \frac{66cm}{56cm}

\frac{height _{1} }{2700cm} = \frac{66cm}{56cm}

2700*66=56*h _{1}

178200=56h _{1}

3182.1cm=h _{1}

\frac{3182.1cm}{1000cm} = 3.2m

height:3.2m
