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.

alekssr [168]

Answer:

The correct answer is 63 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dali rolled up his painting and placed it in a cylinder 2 inches diameter.

Diameter of the painting is 2 inches. This also implies diameter of the cylinder is 2 inches.

Radius of the cylinder is 1 inch.

Length of the cylinder is 20 inches.

Volume of the cylinder is given by π × r^{2} × h =  π × 1^{2} × 20 = 20π = 62.85 cubic inches ≈ 63 cubic inches.

Therefore the volume of the cylinder in which Dali placed his painting is given by 63 cubic inches.
