Answer: 7 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

A 7 feet stop sign creates a shadow that is 2 feet long. At the same time a utility pole creates a shadow that is 2 feet long. How tall is the utility pole.

Length of shadow created by 7 feet stop sign = 2 feets

Length of shadow created by utility pole = 2 feets

Length of utility pole =?

Since the length of shadow created by a body is dependent on the height of the body and the position of the sun.

Since the length of shadow are similar = 2 feets

The height of the utility pole and the sign post would be the same.

Hence, height of utility pole will be 7 feets

What's the Discriminant of X^2-2X-15 ?
Nesterboy [21]
The discriminant is the  secion inside the double parenthasees [()] below in the quadratic formulat which is
x=\frac{-b+ \sqrt{[(b^{2}-4ac)]} }{2a}

the determinant determines or tells whether the answer is real or imaginary
if it is negative, then it is imaginary, if positive, then it is real
 so basically the discriminmant is b^{2}-4ac

so ax^2+bx+c
a=x^2-2x-15

a=1
b=-2
c=-15

subsitute
-2^{2}-4(1)(-15)=4-4(1)(-15)=4+60=64
the discriminant is (-2^{2}-4(1)(-15)) or 64

A bottie contains 255 coins.
mash [69]

Answer:

£152

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

Find out how much is 1/3 of 255 coins:

255 x 1/3 = 85

Since you know how many 50p and £1 coins there are, the remaining of the coins after the 50p and £1 get deducted from the total coins.

255 - 85 - 110 = 60

There are 60 20p coins, 85 £1 coins and 110 50p coins.

Find out the total value by calculating them all altogether.

60 x 20p = 1200

85 x 100p which is £1 = 8500

110 x 50p = 5500

I did them separately so that it wouldn't be so confusing.

Convert them into £, then after that add them up.

£12 + £85 + £55 = £152
