Dixon is 6 feet tall, Ariadne is 4 feet tall by proportion.
What in mathematics is a proportion?
- A proportion is an equation that sets two ratios at the same value.
- For instance, you could express the ratio as follows: 1: 3 if there is 1 boy and 3 girls (for every one boy there are 3 girls) There are 1 in 4 boys and 3 in 4 girls. 0.25 are male (by dividing 1 by 4)
We can use the proportion.
We already know that Dixon is 6 ft tall and that his shadow is 9 ft long.
Also we know that the shadow of his sister is 6 ft long.
6 : x = 9 : 6, or 6 / x = 9 / 6.
After that we will cross multiply : 9 * x = 6 * 6,
9 x = 36 ,
x = 36 /9,
x = 4.
Ariadne is 4 feet tall.

The complete question is -
Dixon and his little sister Ariadne stand next to each other on the playground on a sunny afternoon. Their mother measures their shadows. Dixon's shadow is 9 feet long and Ariadne's shadow is 6 feet long. If Dixon is 6 feet tall, how tall is Ariadne?
Answer:
straight line and line goes through the origin.
Step-by-step explanation:
without a graph, you will need to divide y/x to seeing there is a constant rate or a constant number every time you divide.
i think its 2.5 because 15/6= 2.5 so 2.5t=h and the equation is kt=h so 2.5 makes the most sense.

Hi there!
If you wanted to show your work, a good idea would be showing what numbers you would approximate or round the two numbers to, and divide the numbers.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
c ln (x^3/y^3)
Step-by-step explanation:
3 ln x - 3 lny
We know that a ln b = ln b^a
ln x^3 - ln y^3
We also know ln a - ln b = ln (a/b)
ln (x^3/y^3)
