Answer: The height of the palm tree is 21 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve this:
Actual height to shadow for both objects. The fraction equivalents must be equal.
6/8 = x/28 . Cross multiply
6(28) = 8x
168 = 8x Divide both sides by 8 (8's "cancel" on the right)
168/8 =8x/8
21 = x . This gives us the tree's height as 21 feet.
<em>Another way to solve this is to use the ratios, but simplify the first fraction</em>
<em>6/8 = 3/4</em>
<em>Then multiply the length of the shadow by 3/4</em>
<em>3/4 × 28 = height</em>
<em>28÷4 = 7 7 × 3 = 21</em>
<em>21 feet= the height of the palm tree.</em>
Answer:
C. 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Small triangle is similar to larger one so we can use the similarity ratio to solve the question:
CE/CA = DE/AB
4/12 = 5/AB cross multiply expressions
4AB = 60 divide both sides by 4
AB = 15
The equation of a line is typically written as y=mx+b<span> where </span>m<span> is the slope and </span>b<span> is the y-intercept.</span>
If you a point that a line passes through, and its slope, this page will show you how to find the equation of the line.
what does m equal?
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
transfer 4 to the other side then the sign will be minus
then divide 1 by 3
