alekssr [168]

Answer:

24ft is the length of the shadow of the telephone pole

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first what I did was divide 15 by 4 which equaled to 3.75, after that the question said that the telephone pole was now 90 feet tall so I just had to divide 90 by 3.75 and then 24 ft long was the final answer. I hope that helps

The length of a rectangle is 16 inches. if the width is 25% of its length, what is the perimeter of the rectangle​
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Perimeter = 40 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = 16 inches

Width = 25% of length (16)

          = 25% of 16

25% = 1/4

Width = 1/4 x 16

          = 4 inches

Length = 16 inches

Width = 4 inches

Perimeter of a rectangle = length + length + width + width:

                                         = 16 + 16 + 4 + 4

                                         = 32 + 8

                                         = 40

PERIMETER = 40 inches

So glad I could help :)
