Answer: The height of the building is 50.75 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio between the height of the object and the casted shadow must be equal for all the objects, as the angle at which the source if light impacts them is the same.

For the person, we know that it is 5.8ft tall, and the shadow is 3.2ft long.

The ratio will be: 5.8ft/3.2ft = 1.8125

Now, if H is the height of the building, and the shadow that the building casts is 28ft, we must have:

H/28ft = 1.8125

Now we can solve this for H.

H = 1.8125*28ft = 50.75 ft

Then the height of the building is 50.75 feet.

irina [24]

Answer:

The probability of picking a yellow marble is 2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we need to know the total number of marbles that are in the bag. To do this, we will have to add up all the marble colors together.

This will give us 6 + 2 +4+ 1 = 13 marbles in total.

The next step is to find the number of yellow marbles in the bag.

We can get this from the question. There are 2 yellow marbles in the bag.

The probability of selecting a yellow marble can be obtained by dividing the number of yellow marbles by the total number of marbles in the bag

This will give us 2/13.

Therefore, the probability of picking a yellow marble is 2/13
