Answer: The height of the building is 50.75 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio between the height of the object and the casted shadow must be equal for all the objects, as the angle at which the source if light impacts them is the same.
For the person, we know that it is 5.8ft tall, and the shadow is 3.2ft long.
The ratio will be: 5.8ft/3.2ft = 1.8125
Now, if H is the height of the building, and the shadow that the building casts is 28ft, we must have:
H/28ft = 1.8125
Now we can solve this for H.
H = 1.8125*28ft = 50.75 ft
Then the height of the building is 50.75 feet.
Rise over run is -2/4 or simplified as -1/2
The second one is
See attached picture of graph
We are given area of the ribbon = 144 square inches.
We know formula for side of a square =
.
Plugging value of area in the formula, we get
Side of the square 
= 12 inches.
Sonya wants to sew ribbon along each side of a square pillow.
So, we need to find the perimeter of the square pillow.
<h3>Perimeter = 4 × side = 4 × 12 = 48 inches.</h3><h3>Therefore, she buy 48 inches of ribbon to have the exact amount that she needs.</h3>
So first we assume that half is adult and have is student.
So
215 adult 215 student
Now since it said they were 70 less student tickets than adult tickets we subtract 70.
215 - 70 = 145
Now we add the 70 we subtracted from student tickets to the adult tickets.
215 + 70 = 285
So there were
285 adult tickets sold and 145 student tickets sold
I hope this helped. Have a great day!
