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.

____ [38]
<h3>There are 135 bottles in all</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

A truck is carrying grapefruit juice, mango juice and orange juice bottles in a ratio of 1:1:7

Ratio = 1 : 1 : 7

Let the number of grape fruit juice bottles be 1x

Let the number of mango juice bottles be 1x

Let the number of orange juice bottles be 7x

There are 105 orange juice bottles

Therefore,

7x = 105

Divide both sides by 7

x = 15

Therefore,

number of grape fruit juice bottles = 1x = 15

number of mango juice bottles = 1x = 15

number of orange juice bottles = 7x = 105

Thus,

Total bottles = 15 + 15 + 105 = 135

Thus there are 135 bottles in all

How would you do this problem
Drupady [299]

It would be helpful to draw out a diagram but I'll explain in words.

We start at 0, ground level.

Then up a 100 metre hill, so now we are at 100m.

It plunges down 72, so we take away 72 to get 28m.

Then it takes them back up 48m, so we add 48 to get 76m.

That means that they are 76m above from where they started, ground level.

Hope I helped!
