Answer:

19. 5 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Shadow of tree = 26 feets

Height of flower = 3 feets

Shadow of flower = 4 feets

Height of sun Innthe sky:

Shadow of flower / height of flower

= 4/3 = 1.333333

Height of tree:

Shadow of tree / height of sun

26 feets / 1.33333

= 19.5 feets

Hence, height of tree = 19.5 feets

3 times a number is 54 less than the square of that number
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

3n = n² - 54

n² - 3n - 54 = 0

n² - 9n + 6n - 54 = 0

n(n - 9) + 6(n - 9) = 0

(n - 9)(n + 6) = 0

n = 9 , -6

hope this helps

If 0° ≤ θ ≤ 90° and cosθ = 11/15 , what is the value of sin (90° - θ)?
igor_vitrenko [27]
11/15=0.7333
cos^{-1}(0.7333) =42.83342
sin(90-47.166572) = 0.7333

first, find the numeric value for 11/15
second to find theta, simply do the <em>inverse</em> cos (which is cos^-1) of the first answer.
now you know theta, just do the sin of 90 - theta and that's it!

since you know whatr cos(theta) is, you just take the inverse cos of that number to get theta and 'reverse' cos, essentially. you are just solving for theta, by reversing the cos function with cos^-1

1. The networking organization you joined is throwing a party. You are in charge of buying the chips, which cost $2.50 per bag a
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Option d :18 bags of chips and 6 jars of salsa

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  The networking organization you joined is throwing a party. You are in charge of buying the chips, which cost $2.50 per bag and salsa, which costs $4 per jar. The chips & salsa budget you are given totals $60.

Inequality : 2.5x+4y\leq 60

Solution :

x represents chips

y represents salsa

Option a: 10 bags of chips and 2 jars of salsa

so, x = 10 and y =2

Putting values in inequality

2.5(10)+4(2)\leq 60

25+8\leq 60

33\leq 60

Hence it is correct.

Option b : 20 bags of chips and 2 jars of salsa

so, x = 20 and y =2

Putting values in inequality

2.5(20)+4(2)\leq 60

50+8\leq 60

58\leq 60

Hence it is correct.

Option c : 14 bags of chips and 5 jars of salsa

so, x = 14 and y =5

Putting values in inequality

2.5(14)+4(5)\leq 60

35+20\leq 60

55\leq 60

Hence it is correct.

Option d :18 bags of chips and 6 jars of salsa

so, x = 18 and y =6

Putting values in inequality

2.5(18)+4(6)\leq 60

45+24\leq 60

69\geq 60

Hence it is not correct since it violates the inequality

If 110% of a number is 528, then the number is:
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

c) 480

Step-by-step explanation:

Any percentage can be converted to a number ratio by dividing by 100%.

E.g. 100%/100% = 1

Following this concept, we can find the equivalent of 110% :

110%/100% = 1.1

Since 528 is 1.1 times the number we are looking for, we just need to divide 528 by 1.1 to find our number. This is because 1.1/1.1 = 1

528/1.1 = 480

Hope this helped!
