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.

Suppose the average yearly salary of an individual whose final degree is a​ master's is ​$46 thousand less than twice that of an
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The average sallary of a Master's is 60 thousand and of a Bachellor's is 53 thousand.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we first need to attribute variables to the unkown quantities. We will call the average salary of Master's "x" and the average salary of a Bachellor's "y". The first information the problem gives us is:

x = 2*y - 46

The second one is:

x + y = 113

We now have two equations and two variables, so we can solve the system. To do that we will use the value for x from the first equation on the second one. We have:

2*y - 46 + y = 113

3*y = 113 + 46

3*y = 159

y = 159/3 = 53

x = 2*(53) - 46 = 60

The average sallary of a Master's is 60 thousand and of a Bachellor's is 53 thousand.

Rzqust [24]

Let's solve for h

hx = 0.5x - 9

Step 1: Divide both sides by x.

hx/x = 0.5x - 9/ x

Answer = h = 0.5x - 9/ x

Alex tried to find the lateral area of the pyramid. FIND HIS ERROR AND CORRECT IT.
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

His error is multiplying by 4 sides as he thought it was total surface not lateral surface area- the final answer is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

He should have multiplied it by 3, because the 3 sides- not including the base- is what lateral surface area is. He originally did total surface area not lateral surface area so each sides area is 4m squared then you just multiply it by 3 and its 12
