Answer:

WT=63

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{56}{5 \times x + 3} = \frac{40}{4 \times x - 3} \\ x = 12$

$5 \times x + 3 = 5 \times 12 + 3 = 63$

Simplify (4x-8)/(-3x)*(12)/(12-6x)

zloy xaker [14]

$\dfrac{4x-8}{-3x}\cdot\dfrac{12}{12-6x}=\dfrac{4(x-2)}{-x}\cdot\dfrac{4}{-6(x-2)}=\dfrac{4}{-x}\cdot\dfrac{4}{-6}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{-x}\cdot\dfrac{4}{-3}=\dfrac{(2)(4)}{(-x)(-3)}=\dfrac{8}{3x}$

A truck is being filled with cube-shaped packages that have side lengths of 1/4 foot. The part of the truck that is being filled

n200080 [17]

Answer:

24000 pieces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Side lengths of cube = $\frac{1}{4} \ foot$

The part of the truck that is being filled is in the shape of a rectangular prism with dimensions of 8 ft x 6 1/4 ft x 7 1/2 ft.

Question asked:

What is the greatest number of packages that can fit in the truck?

Solution:

First of all we will find volume of cube, then volume of rectangular prism and then simply divide the volume of prism by volume of cube to find the greatest number of packages that can fit in the truck.

$Volume\ of\ cube =a^{3}$

$=\frac{1}{4} \times\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4} =\frac{1}{64} \ cubic \ foot$

Length = 8 foot, Breadth = $6\frac{1}{4} =\frac{25}{4} \ foot$ , Height = $7\frac{1}{2} =\frac{15}{2} \ foot$

$Volume\ of\ rectangular\ prism =length\times breadth\times height$

$=8\times\frac{25}{4} \times\frac{15}{2} \\=\frac{3000}{8} =375\ cubic\ foot$

The greatest number of packages that can fit in the truck = Volume of prism divided by volume of cube

The greatest number of packages that can fit in the truck = $\frac{375}{\frac{1}{64} } =375\times64=24000\ pieces\ of\ cube$

Thus, the greatest number of packages that can fit in the truck is 24000 pieces.

A six-foot-tall person is standing next to a flagpole. The person is casting a shadow 1 1/2 feet in length, while the flagpole i

Answer: 20 ft

This problem can be solved by the Thales’s theorem, which states:

Two triangles are similar when they have equal angles and proportional sides

It should be noted that to apply Thales' Theorem, it is necessary to establish the two triangles are similar, that is, that they have the corresponding angles equal or that their sides are proportional to each other.

Now, if we measure the shadow of the flagpole and the shadow of the person, at the same moment, we can use the first Thales' Theorem to calculate the height of the flagpole, knowing the height of the person.

In this case we have two similar triangles (Figure attached) where $H$ is the height of the flagpole, $h=6 ft$ is the height of the person, $A=5 ft$ is the length of the shadow of the flagpole and $a=1\frac{1}{2}=1.5 ft$ is the length of the shadow of the person.
