You need to use a ratio of height (H) to shadow length (L) to solve the first problem. It's basically a use of similar triangles, with two perpendicular sides, and with the shadow making the same angle with the vertical.
6 ft = 72 ins, so that rH/L = 72/16 = 9/2 for the player.
So the bleachers are 9/2 x 6 ft = 27 ft.
For the second problem, 9 ft = 108 in, so that the ratio of the actual linear dimensions to the plan's linear dimensions are 9ft/(1/2in) = 2 x 108 = 216.
So the stage will have dimensions 216 times larger than 1.75" by 3".
That would be 31ft 6ins x 54ft.
Live long and prosper.
Answer:
(0,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
For this, you need to use the midpoint formula.
(-3) + 3 2 + (-2)
-------------- , ----------------
2 2
This leads to:
-3 + 3 = 0 -> 0/2
x = 0
3 + (-3) = 0 -> 0/2
The answer is:
(0, 0)
<span>1) Write the point-slope form of the equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (2, 1). y = 1/2x
2)Write the point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through the points (6, -9) and (7, 1).
m = (-9 - 1) / (6 - 7) = -10/-1 = 10
y + 9 = 10 (x - 6)
y = 10x - 69
3) A line passes through the point (-6, 6) and (-6, 2). In two or more complete sentences, explain why it is not possible to write the equation of the given line in the traditional version of the point-slope form of a line.
4)Write the point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through the points (-3, 5) and (-1, 4).
m = (5 - 4) / (-3 - -1) = 1/-2
y - 5 = (-1/2) (x +3)
y = (-1/2)x + 7/2
5) Write the point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through the points (6, 6) and (-6, 1).
m = (6-1)/(6 - -6) = 5 / 12
y - 6 = (5/12) (x-6)
y = (5/12)x + 17 / 2
6) Write the point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through the points (-8, 2) and (1, -4).
m = (2 - -4) / (-8 -1) = 6 / -7
y - 2 = (-6/7) (x + 8)
y = (-6/7)x - 50 / 7
7) Write the point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through the points (5, -9) and (-6, 1).
m = (-9 - 1) / (5 - -6) = -10 / 11
y + 9 = (-10 / 11) (x - 5)
y = (-10 / 11)x -49/11

The answer is x=5 and y=-2
