The building is 78 feet tall.

Actual length / shadow ratio is equal
Let the height of the building be x, then
36/28 = x/70
x = (36 x 70)/28 = 2,520/28 = 90.

Therefore, the height of the building is 90 feet.

Jessica went shopping and bought a pair of jeans that were on sale for 25% off the original price of $23.98. A 6% tax was also a
Ghella [55]

Answer:

$19.07

Step-by-step explanation:

First off we need to find the discounted price of the jeans that Jessica bought.

We find the discount by multiplying the original price by 25% or 0.25

Discount Price = 23.98 x 0.25

Discount Price = 5.99

Now we subtract the discount from the original price.

Discounted Price = 23.98 -5.99

Discounted Price = 17.99

Now that we have the discounted price, we then compute for the sales tax.

Sales Tax = 17.99 x 0.06

Sales Tax = 1.08

Then we add the sales tax to the discounted price.

Total Price = 17.99 + 1.08

Total Price = $19.07

Jessica spent $19.07 on the jeans.

59. What happens to the graph of y = |x| when the equation changes to y = |x + 4? A The graph shifts up 4 units. The graph shift
marishachu [46]

Answer: Graph shifts 4 units to the left

Explanation:

I'm assuming you meant to say y = |x+4|

If so, then the graph shifts 4 units to the left. Replacing x with x+4 moves the xy axis 4 units to the right if we held the V shape in place (since each x is now 4 units larger). This gives the illusion the V shape is moving 4 units to the left.

Or you could look at the vertex point to see how it moves. On y = |x|, the vertex is at (0,0). It then moves to (-4,0) when we go to y = |x+4|
