The building is 78 feet tall.
Arada [10]3 years ago

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.

1. What is the volume, in cubic centimeters, of the sphere shown below? Use 3.14<br> for Pi
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

113.04 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

diameter = 6cm

so radius = 3cm

Volume of sphere = \frac{4}3}\pi r^3

= 4 * 3.14 * 3 * 3 *3 / 3

=  4 * 28.26

= 113.04 cm³

What is CD?
victus00 [196]

Answer:

(C)18 units

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Point G is the centroid of triangle ABC.
  • C is a vertex of the triangle
  • D is the midpoint of the side opposite the vertex.

From Centroid Theorems, we know that the distance from the centroid to the vertex is twice as long as the distance from the centroid to the midpoint of the side opposite the vertex.

Therefore:

CG=2DG

Let the length of segment  DG =x

The length of  segment CG is 6 units greater, therefore: CG=x+6

Substituting into CG=2DG:

x+6=2x

2x-x=6

x=6 Units

Therefore:

CD=CG+GD

=6+6+6

=18 Units

<u><em>The correct option is C.</em></u>

Find the sum of all positive integers less than 200 that are divisible by 7.
Troyanec [42]

Step-by-step explanation:

the positive integer numbers that are divisible by 7 are an arithmetic sequence by always adding 7 :

a1 = 7

a2 = a1 + 7 = 7+7 = 14

a3 = a2 + 7 = a1 + 7 + 7 = 7 + 2×7 = 21

...

an = a1 + (n-1)×7 = 7 + (n-1)×7 = n×7

the sum of an arithmetic sequence is

n/2 × (2a1 + (n - 1)×d)

with a1 being the first term (in our case 7).

d being the common difference from term to term (in our case 7).

how many terms (what is n) do we need to add ?

we need to find n, where the sequence reaches 200.

200 = n×7

n = 200/7 = 28.57142857...

so, with n = 29 we would get a number higher than 200.

so, n=28 gives us the last number divisible by 7 that is smaller than 200 (28×7 = 196).

the sum of all positive integers below 200 that are divisible by 7 is then

28/2 × (2×7 + 27×7) = 14 × 29×7 = 2,842
