Answer:

The Flag pole is 20 ft tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reasoning is that the street lights shadow is 5 ft less than its height so there fore the flag poles height is 20 ft.

Answer:

The third graph is the graph of the function provided

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple technique that can be used to identify the graph that matches the given function is; determination of the y-intercept and then using elimination method to match the function with its graph. At the y-intercept the value of x is always zero, so we replace x with zero in the right hand side of the equation; y(x) = 2^(0+3) = 8. The graph of the function should therefore cross the y-axis at the point (0,8). Thus, the third graph is the graph of the given function.

Answer:

x = 8, and y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 variables, so you need 2 equations to form a system of equations in two variables.

The upper left triangle has all angle measures given: 100, 2x + y, 5x + y. We know that the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180.

First equation:

100 + 2x + y + 5x + y = 180

Simplify:

7x + 2y = 80     (First equation)

Now we see that the upper and lower sides are parallel, so alternate interior angles are congruent. The angles measuring 2x + y and 5x - y are alternate interior angles and are congruent.

Second equation:

2x + y = 5x - y

Simplify:

3x - 2y = 0    (Second equation)

Now we use the first equation and the second equation as a system of simultaneous equations to solve for x and y.

7x + 2y = 80

3x - 2y = 0

Solve the second equation for 2x.

3x = 2y

Now replace 2y in the first equation with 3x.

7x + 3x = 80

10x = 80

x = 8

Replace x with 8 in the second equation.

3(8) - 2x = 0

24 = 2x

x = 12

Answer: x = 8, and y = 12

the base of a fountain is rectangular.its dimensions are 1 2/3 ft by 2 2/3 ft . what is the area of the base of the fountain
kvv77 [185]
If you would like to find the area of the base of the fountain, you can calculate this using the following steps:

1 2/3 ft * 2 2/3 ft = 5/3 * 8/3 = 40/9 = 4 4/9 square feet

The area of the base of the fountain is 4 4/9 square feet.
