Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
This is related to ratios and proportions. We have a 12 foot tree that casts a 6 foot shadow, so now we are trying to figure out how tall is a tree that casts a 4 foot shadow.
We can set an easier method to get this.
12 = 6 (this means the 12 foot tree casts a 6 foot shadow)
x = 4 (this means how tall is the tree to cast a 4 foot shadow, the unknown height of the tree is denoted as x)
Then, we can cross multiply.
48 = 6x
Solve for x, which is the unknown height we are trying to figure out.
x = 8
Can someone please help me answer this question on my page, its worth 99 points, no joke
Answer:
c. (-2, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
y - 2 = 3/2(x + 4)
to know which is the correct option we have to replace the equation x and y with what is in the point
a.
y - 2 = 3/2(x + 4)
(-1) - 2 = 3/2((-2) + 4)
-3 = 3/2(2)
-3 = 3
Wrong
b.
y - 2 = 3/2(x + 4)
(5) - 2 = 3/2((-6) + 4)
3 = 3/2(-2)
3 = -3
Wrong
c.
y - 2 = 3/2(x + 4)
(5) - 2 = 3/2((-2) + 4)
3 = 3/2(2)
3 = 3
Correct
d.
y - 2 = 3/2(x + 4)
(-1) - 2 = 3/2((6) + 4)
-3 = 3/2(10)
-3 = 15
Wrong
Remember PEMDAS
Do parentheses, results in 25. So whats left is 87-25*(-3)+9
Then you multiply -25 by -3, answer is 75. 87+75+9
Add all of them up. 171
The answer is 171!
