Answer:
-3y
Step-by-step explanation:
-15(y2)4 ÷5y3y4
Rewrite the division as a fraction
<u>-15(y2)4</u>
5y3y4
Multiply y3 by y4 by adding the exponents
<u>-5(y2)4</u>
5y7
Cancel the common factor of -15 and 5
<u>-3(y2)4</u>
y7
Multiply the exponents in (y2)4
<u>-3y8</u>
y7
Cancel the common factor of y8 and y7
Factor y7 out of -3y8
<u>y7(-3y)</u>
y7
Multiply by 1
<u>y7(-3y)</u>
y7 × 1
Cancel the common factor which is y7 and y7
Rewrite the expression
<u>-3y</u>
1
Divide -3y by 1
-3y
Given:
Height of Isabelle = 62 inches
Shadow of Isabelle = 93 inches
Shadow of tree = 279 inches
To find:
The height of the tree.
Solution:
Let height of tree be x.
Ratio of height to shadow for Isabelle and tree are


The shadow of Isabelle and tree are proportional to their shadows. So, both ratios must be equal.

Multiply both sides by 279.



Therefore, the height of tree is 186 inches.
If you want to write the equation of a line in the slope/intercept form, you have to write it as 
In other words, you have to solve for y. So, you simply have to subtract 3x from both sides:

I would have to say 27 since there is bo other number after the 5. if there was a number greater than 5 after that, then it would be rounded up. (Ex. 27.5678, would be 28 grams.)
