Answer:

76.14 m

Step-by-step explanation:

create a proportion of height/shadow equals height/shadow

3.2/1.66 = h/39.5

cross-multiply:

1.66h = 39.5(3.2)

1.66h = 126.4

h = 76.14

The equation of a line is 2/5x+1/10y=2<br> The x-intercept of the line is and it’s y-intercept is

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

For this case we have the following equation of a line:

$\frac {2} {5} x + \frac {1} {10} y = 2$

To find the point of intersection with the x axis, we make y = 0:

$\frac {2} {5} x + \frac {1} {10} (0) = 2\\\frac {2} {5} x = 2$

We clear the value of "x":

$x = \frac {2 * 5} {2}\\x = 5$

So, the x-intercept of the line is 5.

To find the point of intersection with the y axis, we make x = 0:

$\frac {2} {5} (0) + \frac {1} {10} y = 2\\\frac {1} {10} y = 2$

We clear the value of "and":

$y = \frac {10 * 2} {1}\\y = 20$

So, the y-intercept of the line is 20.

Answer:

$x = 5\\y = 20$
