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.

Answer:

<em>Dimensions : 1 by 1 by 2 feet,</em>

<em>Volume ⇒ 2 ft^3</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, I can only assume that this rectangular prism is assigned to have dimensions 1 foot by 1 foot by 2 feet;

I can tell that these types of boxes have height and width as the same lengths, so given that;

<em>Dimensions : 1 by 1 by 2 feet,</em>

Volume ⇒ 1 * 1 * 2 ( by definition ) ⇒ 2 ft^3

In other words, <em>Volume ⇒ 2 ft^3</em>
