D is the answer to the question
Step-by-step explanation:
an object and its shadow create a right-angled triangle.
2 objects and their shadows create 2 similar right-angled triangles.
that means the angles are the same, and the side lengths of one triangle all correlate with the corresponding side lengths of the other triangle via the same factor.
so,
42 × f = 6
f = 6/42 = 1/7
the length of Joel's shadow is then
20 × f = 20 × 1/7 = 2.857142857... ft
Well every time it gets rid of a shell it grows 1 1/3 times larger. So so to see how much it grows after the first time you say
1 cm * 1 1/3 = 1 1/3 cm
to get the next one you do the same
1 1/3 cm * 1 1/3 cm = 16/9
It will keep going multiplying by 1 1/3. So so we can say in an equation that the
(initial size) * 1 1/3 *(number of shells) = length
Or 1cm * 1 1/3 * n = L
We we know the final length is 10cm
So 1 1/3 * n = 10cm
n = 7.5shells
so approximately 7 or 8 shells
