Answer:

13.6 meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Suzi's height, p1 = 1.7 m

Suzi's shadow, p2 = 0.3 m

Tree shadow, t2 = 2.4 m

Tree height, t1 =?

Using the relation :

p1 / p2 = t1 / t2

1.7 / 0.3 = t1 / 2.4

Cross multiply :

1.7 * 2.4 = 0.3 * t1

4.08 = 0.3t1

t1 = 4.08 / 0.3

t1 = 13.6

Height of the tree is 13.6 m

SOMEONE PLEASE JUST ANSWER THIS FOR BRAINLIEST!!!

Answer:

y^2 + 8y + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

(6y^2 + 2y + 5) - (5y^2 - 6y - 11) =

The first set of parentheses is unnecessary, so it can just be removed.

= 6y^2 + 2y + 5 - (5y^2 - 6y - 11)

To remove the second set of parentheses, you must distribute the negative sign that is to its left. It changes every sign inside the parentheses.

= 6y^2 + 2y + 5 - 5y^2 + 6y + 11

Now you combine like terms.

= 6y^2 - 5y^2 + 2y + 6y + 5 + 11

= y^2 + 8y + 16

If 2x^2-5x+7 is subtracted from x^2+2x-11, what is the leading coefficient?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² - 5x + 7 is subtracted <em>from </em>x² + 2x - 11, so

(x² + 2x - 11) - (2x² - 5x + 7)

x² + 2x - 11 - 2x² + 5x -7 (Distribute the negative)

-x² + 7x - 18 (Combine like terms)

The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the first term, so it is -1.
