the same number of marbles?

Answer:

1500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total number of marbles held by Layala and Zahra = 2700

Ratio = 2 : 7

Layala's share of marbles : (2 / (2+7)) * 2700

= 2/9 * 2700

= 600

Zahra's share of marble : (7 / (2+ 7)) * 2700

= 7 / 9 * 2700

= 2100

Hence, Zahra must have given away (2100 - x) = 600

2100 - 600

= 1500 marbles, so that both Zahra and Layala have the same number of marbles

An oak tree cast a shadow of 14 feet. A 30 foot flagpole casts a shadow of 60 how tall the Oak tree?
Alina [70]

Answer:

7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Oak tree = x

14 : x  as  60 : 30

Simplify the right ratio

14 : x  as 2:1

Get the same first number in both ratios by multiplying 2:1 by 7

14 : x  as 2(7) + 1(7)

14 : x as 14 : 7

Since the first number in each ratio is the same, we know that that x and 7 are equal

x = 7

Hope this helps, feel free to let me know if you would like a further explanation :)

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The two dots on the bottom of this figure define the base of a triangle.  If we now use a compass to draw the blue arcs on either side, as shown, the arcs will intersect at two points.  A straight line drawn through these two points will be perpendicular to the base. The triangle will be isosceles and could be (but doesn't have to be) equilateral.
