Answer:

The building is 187.5 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

A nearby person is 6 feet tall, and casts a shadow that is 8 feet long.

This means that the relation between the real height and the shadow is given by:

\frac{6}{8} = \frac{3}{4}

A tall building casts a shadow that is 250 feet long. How tall is the building?*

The real height is three fourths of the shadow. So

\frac{3}{4}*250 = 187.5

The building is 187.5 feet tall.

Anyone do K12 International Private Academy? I was wondering if u could share your honest thoughts and opinions on it :)
kiruha [24]
I do K12 7th grade and it has really brought my grades up! One thing I have noticed though is the work is more advanced then the work at a normal school. At first I had alot of trouble getting used to the system but after awhile it's very simple. I really like K12 because it let's you learn at your own pace. if you have any questions about K12 I would be happy to answer.

Betty had 1/3 yard of ribbon. She used 1/2 of it. How many yards of ribbon did she use?
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

b. 1/6 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

When Betty used 1/2 OF the 1/3 yards she has she has to multiple those. It's easier to put it in a sentence in my opinion because then you can see the "of" in the sentence which means to multiply. Hope this helps!

Two angles are vertical angles. One angle is ( 8x + 15 ) and the other angle is 143. Solve for x.
sineoko [7]

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Verticle angles are always congruent, so:

(8x + 15) = 143

Now, we can solve to isolate x:

8x + 15 - 15 = 143 - 15  (subtract 15 from both sides)

8x/8 = 128/8                (divide both sides by 8)

x = 16

You can always plug in the value of x to the original equation to check your answer:

8(16) + 15 = 143
