Answer:
22 3/4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram seems to show a 6 1/2 ft person casting a 9 ft shadow at the same time a flagpole is casting a 31 1/2 ft shadow. You want the height of the flagpole.
<h3>Proportion</h3>
Shadow lengths are presumed proportional to the height of the object making them. This means ...
h/(31 1/2) = (6 1/2)/9 . . . . . all lengths in feet
Multiplying by 31 1/2, we get ...
h = (31 1/2)(6 1/2)/9 = (819/4)/9 = 91/4
h = 22 3/4 . . . . ft
The flagpole is 22 3/4 feet tall.
Joseph was swimming faster because 1/12 of a mile per minute is around 5 miles per hour so Joseph was swimming 0.5 miles per hour faster than Joe.
Answer:
x=4.63
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = (1/2) (base) (height)
20 = (1/2) (x+4) (x)
40 = x²+4x
x²+4x-40=0
Put in quadratic equation:
x=
x=
x=4.63324958071 or x=-8.63324958071
Since x can't be negative in this case we take our answer to be 4.63324958071, which rounds to 4.63
Lol I don't know how to make a table on this site, but I will try!
___________________________________________
health: __7__⊥__14___⊥__21__⊥__28_
fire: 12 ║ 24 ║ 36 ║

There are not any common factors between 7 and 12 until they are multiplied
The health inspector and the fire inspector will visit on the same day in 84 days
