Answer:
Building's actual height 32 meters
Building's shadow height 20 meters
Person's shadow height 1.2 meters
Person's actual height = ?
Find the person's actual height:
This is a proportion problem.
Actual height to shadow height
Building = Person
32 : 20 = x : 1.2
32 * 1.2 = 20 * x
38.4 = 20x
38.4/20 = 20x/20
1.92 = x
The person's actual height is 1.92 meters long.
32 : 20 = 1.92 : 1.2
32/20 = 1.60
1.92/1.2 = 1.60
Step-by-step explanation:
There would be 84 students in the science club
Minus z both sides
0=x^2+wx+z
we can use quadratic formula or manually complete the square
let's use quadratic
for
0=ax^2+bx+c

given
0=1x^2+wx-z
a=1
b=w
c=-z
