Answer:

40 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Height of fence = 8 feets

Shadow of fence = 14.5 feets

Shadow of cell phone tower = 72.5 feets

Height of cell phone tower = x

Height of fence = shadow of fence

Height of tower = shadow of tower

8 feets= 14.5 feets

x feets = 72.5

Cross multiply :

(14.5 * x) = (72.5 * 8)

14.5x = 580 feets

x = 580/14.5

x = 40 feets

Hence, the height of the cell phone tower is 40 feets

The figure shown in the right is made up of a square and a circle. Find the perimeter of the shaded region.
Tasya [4]

Answer:

B. 12 + 2pi cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The shaded region is made up of 3 square sides and one half circle. The three square sides are each 4, which means that those altogether equal 12.

The circle's circumference can be found by using the equation c = (d)pi

The diameter is 4, so the whole circumference is 4pi. However, you only need half of a circle, which is represented by 2pi.

Add them all together, and you get 12 + 2pi cm.

There are many cylinders with a height of 9 inches. Let r represent the radius in
mylen [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

V, r, h are the volume, radius, and height, respectively.

V = πr²h = 9πr²

The only error in your previous answers was that you forgot the π.

if r = 1, V = 9π1² = 9π ≅ 28 in³

if r = 2, V = 9π2² = 36π ≅ 113 in³

if r = 3, V = 9π3² = 81π ≅ 254 in³

katovenus [111]

The equation is 2.5x + 2y - 2 = 0.

<h2>Linear system</h2>

It is a system of an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. A one-dimension figure that has no width. It is a combination of infinite points side by side.

Given

He bought 2.5 pounds of apples that are x dollars a pound.

And 2 bags of lettuce for y dollars each.

The total cost is $2.

<h3>To find </h3>

The equation of this.

<h3>How to find the equation?</h3>

He bought 2.5 pounds of apples that are x dollars a pound.

Then the expression is 2.5x

And 2 bags of lettuce for y dollars each.

Then the expression is 2y

The total cost is $2.

Then the expression will be

    2.5x + 2y = 2

2.5x + 2y - 2 = 0

Thus the equation is 2.5x + 2y - 2 = 0.
