Answer:

4 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Height of tree = 20 feets

Shadow of tree = 15 ft

Height of student = 5ft 4 in ; 4 in = 0.3333 foot = 5.3333 feet

Shadow of student = s

Height of tree / shadow of tree = height of student / shadow of student

20 / 15 = 5.33333 / s

Cross multiply :

20 * s = 15 * 5.33333

s = 79.99995 / 20

s = 3.9999975

Shadow of student =, 4 feets

The inequality that represents the amount of money Alex needs to earn is y = 11.50x and 9x + 100.

<h3>How to depict the information?</h3>

The slope and the y intercept of both of the works will be:

For the tech company:

y = 11.50x

m = 11.50

y = 11.50(8 × 20)

y = 11.50(160)

y = 1840

For the amusement park

amusement parky = 9x + 100

amusement parky = 9x + 100y = 9(320) + 100

y = 2880 + 100

y = 2980.

When he wants to make the exact amount, the number of hours will be:

9x + 100 = 2200

9x = 2200 - 100

9x = 2100

x = 233.3
