Answer:

30 feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

The woman is 6 feet tall and her shadow is 3.5 feet tall, as is the flagpole's shadow is 17.5 feet tall making the flagpole 30 feet tall.

Equation: 6/3.5 = 1.74 x 17.5 = 30

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

What is 10/9 closer to 1, 1/2
Serga [27]

Answer:

It is closer to 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, 10/9 is the same thing as 1 1/9.

Draw a number line:

                                  1/2                               1

--|------|------|------|-----|---|---|------|------|------|-----|-----

0/9  1/9   2/9  3/9  4/9  5/9  6/9  7/9  8/9  9/9

Halfway between 4/9 and 5/9 is the same as 1/2 and 9/9 is the same as 1.

You can see that 1/9 is way closer to 1/2 than 1.

So, 10/9 is closer to 1/2.

(There are other ways to solve this, but this way is easiest for me!)

At a concession​ stand, five hot dog left parenthesis s right parenthesis and four hamburger left parenthesis s right parenthesi
mezya [45]
Hotdogs = $1.00
hamburgers = $1.75

5 hotdogs + 4 hamburgers = $12.00
4 hotdogs + 5 hamburgers = $12.75
hotdogs = x
hamburgers = y

5x + 4y = 12
4x + 5y = 12.75
subtract the second equation from the first:
(5x + 4y = 12) - (4x + 5y = 12.75) =
1x - 1y = -0.75
x + 0.75 = y ( this means one hotdog plus $0.75 equals one hamburger)
now substitute "y" for "x + 0.75" in either equation to find x ( I used the first equation)
5x + 4y = 12
5x + 4( x + 0.75) = 12
5x + 4x + 3 = 12
9x + 3 = 12
9x = 9
x = 1 ( one hotdog costs $1.00)
now substitute 1 for "x" in either equation to find y ( I used the first equation again)
5x + 4y = 12
5(1) + 4y = 12
5 + 4y = 12
4y = 7
y = 1.75 ( one hamburger costs $1.75)

checking answers with either equation ( input $1.00 for hotdogs and $1.75 for hamburgers):
equation 1:
5 hotdogs + 4 hamburgers = $12.00
5($1.00) + 4($1.75) = $12.00
$5.00 + $7.00 = $12.00
$12.00 = $12.00 ✔

equation 2:
4 hotdogs + 5 hamburgers = $12.75
4($1.00) + 5($1.75) = $12.75
$4.00 + $8.75 = $12.75
$12.75 = $12.75 ✔

Given the follow statistics about scores on the last math test, what is the best description of the shape of the distribution?
julia-pushkina [17]

The shape of the distribution, is symmetric, is the best description of   statistics about scores.

<h3 /><h3>What is standard deviation ?</h3>

The standard deviation is the positive square root of the variance of this data set. Variance of a data set is the sum of squared differences of the data values from its mean to the total count of data values.

The given data in the problem is;

Mean = 78%

Standard deviation = 4%

Min = 64

Median = 78

Q1 = 72

Q3 = 84

Max = 99

The condition for the symmetric distribution is found as;

(\rm Q_2-Q_1)=Q_3-Q_2)

From the data we have;

(\rm Q_2-Q_1)=Q_3-Q_2)\\\\ (\rm Q_2-Q_1)= (\rm 84-78)= 6 \\\\ Q_3-Q_2)=(78-72) = 6 \\\\

So that , (\rm Q_2-Q_1)=Q_3-Q_2).

Hence, the condition of symmetry is followed.

To learn more about the symmetry, refer to the link;l
