Answer:
Height of the streetlight ≈ 8 ft(nearest foot)
Step-by-step explanation:
The doc file displays the triangle formed from the illustration. x is the height of the street light. The distance from the gentle man to the street light is 10 ft. He has a height of 5.6 ft and the shadow formed on the ground is 24 ft long. The height of the street light can be calculated below.
The length of the tip of the shadow to the base of the street light is 34 ft. Similar triangle have equal ratio of their corresponding sides .
ab = 5.6 ft
The ratio of the base sides = 24/34
The ratio of the heights = 5.6/x
The two ratio are equal Therefore,
24/34 = 5.6/x
24x = 5.6 × 34
24x = 190.4
divide both side by 24
x = 190.4/24
x = 7.93333333333
x ≈ 8 ft
Height of the streetlight ≈ 8 ft(nearest foot)
Answer:
Overall vertical is visually better, if done correctly
it forces you to "line up" all the common exponents.
The disadvantage is that it usually requires re-writing the problem, and it takes up space.
most problems are presented horizontally, that becomes the issue to locate the common exponents.
in both cases the biggest issue is people forget
that when subtracting "subtracting a negative is like adding a positive"
-5x - (-8x) = 3x [that is a positive 3x]
or:
-7x
- - 10x
-------------
3x
everyone misses those eventually so you have to watch out for that in both methods
