Answer:

22.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The shadow is formed at a specific factor of the original image hence if a 5 feet tall man casts a shadow rhat is 4 1/3 feet long then a  telephone pole casts a shadow that is 25.5 feet long must have a length

5 / 4 1/3 = x / 25.5

where x is the length of the pole

5 / 13/3 = x/ 25.5

15/13 = x/25.5

cross multiply

15 * x = 13 * 25.5

Divide both sides by 15

x = 13 * 25.5 / 15

x = 22.1 inches

The telephone pole in inches is 22.1 long

What is the product 3kk1
lianna [129]

According to the identity property, the product of 3k x 1 = 3k.

Identity property:

The identity property of multiplication defined that that we multiply 1 by any number, the product is the number itself.

The standard form of the identity property is written as.

a x 1 = 1 x a = a

Where the value of a must be greater than zero.

If the value of a is zero then the resulting value is 0.

Given,

Here we need to find the product of 3k x 1.

The general form of the identity property is written as,

=> a x 1 = a

So, if we multiply anything with 1, then it will gives the same.

So, the product of

=>3k x 1 = 3k.

Please help me in answers 6 and 8
Ivenika [448]
For #6

x + y = -10
x - y = 2

First solve for y in one of the equations

x - y = 2
-y = 2 - x
y = -2 + x
y = x - 2

Now substitute into one of the equations and solve for x

x + y = -10
x + x - 2 = -10
2x - 2 = -10
2x = -8
x = -4

Write yes if the given set of lengths are side lengths of a right triangle. Otherwise write No
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

a) Yes

b) No

c) Yes

d) No

e) No

Step-by-step explanation:

Right triangle:

The square of the larger side is equals to the sum of the squares of the smaller sides.

a. 6, 8, 10

6^2 + 8^2 = 36 + 64 = 100 = 10^2

The answer is yes.

b. 8, 15, 16

8^2 + 15^2 = 64 + 225 = 289 \neq 16^2 = 256

So no.

c. 10, 24, 26

10^2 + 24^2 = 100 + 576 = 676 = 26^2

So yes

d. 20, 21, 28

20^2 + 21^2 = 400 + 441 = 841 \neq 28^2 = 784

So no.

e. 9, 35, 41​

9^2 + 35^2 = 81 + 1225 = 1306 \neq 41^2 = 1681

Answer:

210.65 ft

round as needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Law of Cosines

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abCosC

c^2 = 125^2 + 210^2 - 2(125)(210)Cos73

c^2 = 15,625 + 44,100 - 15349.5

c^2 = 44,375.5

c = 210.654931107724132
