Answer:

  38 2/3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In shadow problems, the usual assumption is that object height and shadow length are proportional.

  height/length = b/16 = 5.8/2.4 . . . . . for building height b

  b = 16(5.8/2.4) = 38 2/3

The building is 38 2/3 feet tall.

Find a statement that is equivalent to the absolute value equation |9x−9|=7.
Olegator [25]

Answer:9x-9=7 or 9x-9=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

An absolute value is the distance from zero, therefore the answer can not be negative. In this case, 9x-9=7 and 9x-9=-7 both work, because 7 and -7 are the same distance from zero.

a student bought a juice pouch for $2.50 and 3 bags of chips. the total cost was $5.05 write and solve an equation to determine
Wittaler [7]

First, write it as an equation

2.50+3x=5.05

Next, subtract 2.50 from both sides

2.50-2.50+3x=5.05-2.50

3x=2.55

Divide 3 on both sides

3x/3=2.55/3

x=0.85

The cost of a bag of chips is 0.85

hope i helped :D

What is the perimeter? Please help
allochka39001 [22]

Answer: The answer would be D. 64

Step-by-step explanation: Understanding that the question noted that the second rectangle was dilated from PQRS, which has a perimeter of 16. With the coordinates of point P for the first rectangle being (2,0.5) whilst the second rectangle has point P at (8,2). To figure out the perimeter, divide point P from the second rectangle with point P from the first. The result would be 4. Thus, the scale factor is 4, which you then multiply the perimeter of PQRS by, which was 16. 16 times 4 equals 64.
