Answer:

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that 6 feet tall casts shadow for 38 feet long.

We need to find the shadow f 986 ft tall Eiffel tower.

Let's set up proportional equation to solve. Let the shadow length as 'x' feet for the tower.

\frac{6}{38} = \frac{986}{x}

Cross multiply,

6 x= 37468

Divide both sides by 6.

x= 6244.67 feet approximately.

If we round it to nearest feet, we get 6245 feet.

There is 28 kg 750 g of sugar in a sack. How many tins of 500 g sugar can be filled using the sugar in the sack?
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

28 kg + 750 g = 28*1000 + 750

                          28000 + 750

                       = 28750 g

Number of sack = Total quantity of sugar ÷ quantity of sugar in a sack

                           = 28750 ÷ 500

                           =  57 sacks

Y = 2/3 x -3 y = -3/2 x +2 what statement about the lines are true
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

The product of the slopes of lines is -1.

i.e. m₁ × m₂ = -1

Thus, the lines are perpendicular.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

Given the lines

y = 2/3 x -3       --- Line 1

y = -3/2x +2      --- Line 2

<u>The slope of line 1</u>

y = 2/3 x -3       --- Line 1

By comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

The slope of line 1 is: m₁ = 2/3

<u>The slope of line 2</u>

y = -3/2x +2      --- Line 2

By comparing with the slope-intercept y = mx+b form of the line equation

The slope of line 2 is: m₂ = -3/2

We know that when two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1.

Let us check the product of two slopes m₁ and m₂

m₁ × m₂ = (2/3)(-3/2 )

m₁ × m₂ = -1

Thus, the product of the slopes of lines is -1.

i.e. m₁ × m₂ = -1

Thus, the lines are perpendicular.
