Step-by-step explanation:
an object and its shadow create a right-angled triangle.
2 objects and their shadows create 2 similar right-angled triangles.
that means the angles are the same, and the side lengths of one triangle all correlate with the corresponding side lengths of the other triangle via the same factor.
so,
42 × f = 6
f = 6/42 = 1/7
the length of Joel's shadow is then
20 × f = 20 × 1/7 = 2.857142857... ft
Answer:
35
Step-by-step explanation:
just subtract 125 and 99
Answer:
63
Step-by-step explanation:
90+13x+1+28x+7=180
98+41x=180
41x=82
x=2
Plugging in the value of x, we get:
28x+7=28(2)+7=56+7=63
Answer: 12 9/10 and 10 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
5 8/10 plus 7 1/10 equals 12 9/10
8 5/8 plus 2 2/8 equals 10 7/8
