Answer:
B, but I may be wrong.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
52 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent my current age by c. Then 400 - 2c = 296, or
104 = 2c
Then c must be 104/2, or 52 years.
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
22 3/4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram seems to show a 6 1/2 ft person casting a 9 ft shadow at the same time a flagpole is casting a 31 1/2 ft shadow. You want the height of the flagpole.
<h3>Proportion</h3>
Shadow lengths are presumed proportional to the height of the object making them. This means ...
h/(31 1/2) = (6 1/2)/9 . . . . . all lengths in feet
Multiplying by 31 1/2, we get ...
h = (31 1/2)(6 1/2)/9 = (819/4)/9 = 91/4
h = 22 3/4 . . . . ft
The flagpole is 22 3/4 feet tall.
To find the surface area, multiply length x width x height.
let "length" = l
l x 32 x 36 = 4344
Simplify
l x (32 x 36) = 4344
l x 1152 = 4344
Isolate the length. Divide 1152 from both sides
(l x 1152)/1152 = (4344)/1152
l = 4344/1152
l = 3.77 (rounded)
3.77 cm is your length.
hope this helps
