Olegator [25]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: The height of the flagpole is 12 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the flagpole be 'H'.

So, from the figure, we can conclude that, the height and shadow of the flagpole is in proportion to the height and shadow of the stick.

Given:

Height of stick is,

Shadow of the stick is,

Shadow of the flagpole is,

Now, as these are in proportion, we have

Plug in the given values and solve for 'H'. This gives,

Hence, the height of the flagpole is 12 feet.

Select the correct answer.
vivado [14]

Answer:

B will be the answer...

Step-by-step explanation:

The second equation in system B is only in terms of y, so we need to use elimination to eliminate the x term from the second equation in system A.

To do that, we need to multiply the first equation by 5.

5 (-x − 2y = 7)

-5x − 10y = 35

Add to the second equation.  Notice the x terms cancel out.

(-5x − 10y) + (5x − 6y) = 35 + (-3)

-16y = 32

Combining this new equation with the first equation from system A will get us system B.

-x − 2y = 7

-16y = 32

Mr. Nordman gets a commission of $2.30 on each pair of women's shoes he sells, and a commission of $3 on each pair of men's shoe
Alina [70]

Answer:

x ≥ 5

y ≥ 10

3x + 2.3y ≥ 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets the number of men's shoes he sells be x and women's shoes be y.

For each men's shoes , he gets a commission of $3 and for each women's shoe, he gets a commission of $2.30 .

He needs to sell atleast 10 women's shoes and 5 men's shoes.

Also he needs to make atleast $60 per week.

x ≥ 5

y ≥ 10

3x + 2.3y ≥ 60

These are are the 3 required inequalities.

Now we will see an example.

If he sells 20 womens shoes and 10 mens shoes , he will meet the requirements.

He will make a total profit = 2.3\times 20 + 3\times 10 =$76

Which factor does the width of the peak of a normal curve depend on?
Aleks [24]
<span>The normal curve is described by a bell curved graph. The bell curved graph of a normal distribution depends on two factors: the mean and the standard deviation. The mean identifies the position of the center and the standard deviation determines the height and width of the bell. Therefore, the factor that the width of the peak of the normal curve depends on is the standard deviation.</span>

kupik [55]

Answer:

This answer is a function because there are no repeating x values. It is okay if there are repeating y values, the x values are the problem. This one has no repeats though so it is a function!
