Set up a proportion.
Let x = the number of students in 29970 who speak 3 or more languages.

285/19 = 29970/x Cross multiply
285 x = 19 * 29970
285x = 569430
x = 569430/285
x = 5415 students speak 3 languages.

What is 15 cm/year converted to inches per month? Round to the nearest tenth.
topjm [15]

Answer:

0.5 inches per month

Step-by-step explanation:

There are nearly 0.3937 inches in 1 cm, so

1 \ cm \approx 0.03937 \ in\\ \\15\ cm\approx 5.9055\ in

There are 12 months in the year, so'

15 centimeters per year is equivalent to

15 \ cm/year\approx \dfrac{5.9055}{12}\ in/month\\\approx 0.492125\ in/month\\\approx 0.5\ in/month\\\\

A 5'6" person walking down the street notices his shadow. If the angle of elevation from the tip of the shadow to the sun is 60°
madreJ [45]

Answer:

The length of the shadow is 3.17 feet .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The height of the person walking on street = H = 5'6''

∴ 12" = 1 '

So, 6" = \dfrac{1}{12} × 6 = 0.5'

I.e H = 5.5 feet

The angle of elevation of from tip of shadow to sun = Ф = 60°

Let The length of the shadow = X feet

<u>Now, From figure</u>'

Tan angle = \dfrac{\textrm perpendicular}{\textrm base}

Or, Tan Ф = \dfrac{\textrm AB}{\textrm AO}

Or, Tan 60° =  \dfrac{\textrm H}{\textrm X}

Or, Tan 60° =  \dfrac{\textrm 5.5 feet}{\textrm X}

Or, 1.732 = \dfrac{\textrm 5.5 feet}{\textrm X}

Or, X = \dfrac{\textrm 5.5 feet}{\textrm 1.732}

∴    X = 3.17 feet

So, The length of the shadow = X = 3.17 feet

Hence, The length of the shadow is 3.17 feet . Answer
