Answer:
The answer to your question is 12.55 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Adam Cara
height = 159 cm height = 140 cm
shadow = 105 cm shadow = x
Process
1.- To solve this problem use the Thales' theorem
Cara's shadow / Cara's height = Adam's shadow / Adam's height
- Substitution
x / 140 = 105 / 159
-Solve for x
x = 105 (140) / 159
-Simplification
x = 14700 / 159
x = 92.45 cm
Cara's shadow is 92.45 cm long.
2.- If both shadows are in line, then Cara must walk forward
105 - 92.45 cm
12.55 cm
Since the equation has a absolute value in it, the equation will be reflected over the axis of symmetry, which just so happens to be the y-axis in this case. (The answer is c).
The points you are looking for are the midpoints of segments JL and JK.
J(-2, -1), K(4, -5), L(0, -5)
The midpoint of segment JL is
(-2 + 0)/2, (-1 + (-5))/2) = (-2/2, -6/2) = (-1, -3)
The midpoint of segment JK is
(-2 + 4)/2, (-1 + (-5))/2) = (2/2, -6/2) = (1, -3)
Answer: The coordinates are (-1, -3), (1, -3)
