Answer:
its b because i took a test
Step-by-step explanation:
3p + 2s + b...when p = 39.99 and s = 17.89 and b = 49
3(39.99) + 2(17.89) + 49 = 204.75 <==
F(x) = -x + 4
Substitute x = -2 to the equation:
f(-2) = -(-2) + 4 = 2 + 4 = 6
Answer: A) 6
Answer: The height of the palm tree is 21 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve this:
Actual height to shadow for both objects. The fraction equivalents must be equal.
6/8 = x/28 . Cross multiply
6(28) = 8x
168 = 8x Divide both sides by 8 (8's "cancel" on the right)
168/8 =8x/8
21 = x . This gives us the tree's height as 21 feet.
<em>Another way to solve this is to use the ratios, but simplify the first fraction</em>
<em>6/8 = 3/4</em>
<em>Then multiply the length of the shadow by 3/4</em>
<em>3/4 × 28 = height</em>
<em>28÷4 = 7 7 × 3 = 21</em>
<em>21 feet= the height of the palm tree.</em>
