In Ponce De Leon Park, there is a flag pole that is exactly 50 feet tall. Nearby, there is a pine tree that appears to be nearly

as tall as the flag pole. On a sunny afternoon, the flag pole is casting a 15-foot-long shadow on the ground. The pine tree is casting a 12-foot-long shadow on the ground at the same time.

Answer:

10 feet higher.

Pine tree measure = 40 feet in height

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the Flag pole of 50 feet in measure cast a shadow of 15feet and nearby to the pine tree (meaning same dilation would occur for such shadow) where pine tree shadow is given measure of 12 feet.

Flag Pole multiplier = 50 / 15 = 3 1/3

Pine Tree true measure = 12 x 3 1/3 = 40 feet in height

Choose the linear inequality that describes the graph. The gray area represents the shaded region.
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

2x + 3y ≥ 5

Step-by-step explanation:

See the graph attached.

The bold straight line passes through the points (1,1) and (4,-1).

Therefore, the equation of the straight line will be  

\frac{y + 1}{- 1 - 1} = \frac{x - 4}{4 - 1}

⇒ 3(y + 1) = - 2(x - 4)

⇒ 3y + 3 = - 2x + 8

⇒ 2x + 3y = 5 ............. (1)

Now, the shaded region i.e. the solution to the inequality does not include the origin(0,0).

So, putting x = 0 and y = 0 in the equation (1) we get, 0 < 5

Therefore, the inequality equation is 2x + 3y ≥ 5 (Answer)

\huge \mathfrak \blue{Solution \:  - }

The formula for area of triangle is -

\frac{1}{2}   \times base \times height

________________________________

So, the area of first triangle =

\frac{1}{2}  \times base \:  \times height

\frac{1}{2}  \times 4  \times 3

=  \pink{6  \: units}

________________________________

Area of second triangle =

\frac{1}{2 }  \times base \times height

\frac{1}{2}  \times 4 \times 6

=  \pink {12 \:  units}

________________________________

Area of second triangle - Area of first triangle

= 12 - 6

= 6

\sf \underline\purple{The \: area \: increases \: by \: 6 \: square \: units.}

What characteristics lead to a downward sloping demand curve?
Makovka662 [10]
In economics, the downward sloping demand curve is used to illustrate the law of diminishing marginal utility. This means that if more of the product is consumed, the marginal benefit to the consumer falls. This is also the instance in which the consumers are willing to pay less than the original amount for the same product.

In two or more complete sentences describe how to determine if the function, f(x) = 3sin(x) is odd using algebra.
Alex17521 [72]
For odd functions f(-x) = -f(x).

Given that f(x) = 3sin(x)
f(-x) = 3sin(-x) = -3sinx = -f(x).

Therefore, f(x) = 3sin(x) is an odd function.
