Answer: 20 foot tall.

Step-by-step explanation: the shadow of the pole is 3 feet. and the shadow from the building is 12 feet.

12 can be divided by 3, 4 times. we know for every 3 foot shadow, the actual object is 5 feet tall.

we just multiply 5 by 4 to get 20.

we can also check our work by dividing 3 by 5. this is 0.6.

then we divide 12 by 20. that is also 0.6.

hence that is the answer.

Convert 114five 1 to base ten.
Anna35 [415]

I assume you're asking to convert 114₅ to base 10. We have

114₅ = 1•5² + 1•5¹ + 4•5⁰

114₅ = 25 + 5 + 4

114₅ = 34

Pls help i am confused no links
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

These angles are equal to each other because they are vertical angles.

Hence, we can equal the two measurements together to solve for x:

3x + 50 = 6x - 10

3x + 60 = 6x

60 = 3x

20 = x

Check your work:

3(20) + 50 = 6(20) - 10

60 + 50 = 120 - 10

110 = 110

Correct

Work in the five days?
Ghella [55]

Answer:

9.3

Step-by-step explanation:

last week she worked 45.6 hours. since 40 hours is the limit for normal working hours, she worked 45.6-40 = 5.6 hours overtime.

this week she worked 9.7+8.3+8+9.1+8.6 hours = 43.7 hours.

she worked therefore 43.7-40 = 3.7 hours overtime.

so, in total of the two weeks, she worked 5.6+3.7 = 9.3 hours overtime.

I need your help guys please can you answer for me please ​

1. In parallelograms, opposite sides are congruent. Therefore EV=16
2. In parallelograms, adjacent angles add up to 180°, so measure of angle V = 100°
3. Opposite angles are equal so measure of angle L = 95°
4. Diagonals of parallelograms bisect each other. DE=10
5. Same rule as #4. LV=18
