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

a sporting goods store receives a shipment of 124 golf bags. The shipment includes two types of bags, full-sized and collapsible
Dominik [7]
The sporting goods store receives the shipment of 124 golf bags in total.
Let us assume that the number of full-sized bags = X
Then the number of collapsible golf bags = 124 - X
Cost of each full sized bags = $38.50
Cost of each collapsible bags = $22.50
Total cost of the 124 bags received by the sporting goods store = $3430
Then
(38.50)X + (124 - X)22.50 = 3430
(38.50X - 22.50X) + 2790 = 3430
16X = 3430 - 2790
16X = 640
X = 640/16
   = 40
So the number of full-sized golf bags received = 40
Then the number of collapsible golf bags received = 124 - 40
                                                                                 = 84

Find the area of the shaded portion in the equilateral triangle with sides 6.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Triangle is equilateral with sides of 6.
Therefore all angles = 60°
Ht of 30-60-90 is 3sr3 = 5.196
Area of 30-60-90 = 1/2×b×h = 3×5.196
Area = 15.59
Pie slice from each corner = 60/360×pi×r^2, with r = 3
1/6×pi×9 = 4.71 × 3 pie slices = 14.13
So, shaded inner region = area triangle - 3 pie corners = 15.59-14.13
= 1.46

What is the value of x?
pentagon [3]

The total value of the exterior angles of a polygon is 360 degrees. To find x, we can add up all of the values of the exterior angles given, set it equal to 360, and solve for x in the equation.

59 + 77 + 66 + 62 + 12x = 360

264 + 12x = 360

12x = 96

x = 8

Hope this helps!! :)
