Answer:Cross multiply and solve for x.
x/6 = 5/1.25
let the height of building be h ft
h/6 = 60/15
h = 6(60/15) = 24
the building is 24 ft high
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first let’s covert the ft to in- 5ft is 60 in and 6ft is 72 in. Then we want to set up 2 fractions based on height and shadow, so we have 60/15=x/72 (we put x because that’s what we’re trying to find). Then we do cross multiplication so now we have 15x=4320. We divide 15, so now we have 4320/15=288. So the building is 288 in tall or 24ft tall! Glad to help! :)
Answer: A) 0 triangles
============================================================
Explanation:
Adding up the two smaller sides gets us 9.6+11.6 = 21.2, but this result is not larger than the third side of 21.2
For a triangle to be possible, we need to be able to add any two sides and have the sum be larger than the third remaining side. This is the triangle inequality theorem.
I recommend you cutting out slips of paper with these side lengths and trying it out yourself. You'll find that a triangle cannot be formed. The 9.6 cm and the 11.6 cm sides will combine to form a straight line that is 21.2 cm, but a triangle won't form.
As another example of a triangle that can't be formed is a triangle with sides of 3 cm, 5 cm, and 8 cm. The 3 and 5 cm sides add to 3+5 = 8 cm, but this does not exceed the third side. The best we can do is form a straight line but that's not a triangle.
In short, zero triangles can be formed with the given side lengths of 9.6 cm, 11.6 cm, and 21.2 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
△BAC ≅ △EDF (given)
Therefore,
BC=EF
x-4=19
x=23
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
A = P( 1+r/n) ^ (nt)
P is the amount invested
r is the rate
n is the number of times per year the interest is compounded
t is the number of years
every 6 months is twice a year
so n is 2
Answer:
18 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
we add 2 and 3 because they are equal parts:
2+3=5
Then we divide 45 by 5 because we want to find what 1 part equals"
45/5=9
We now do 9*2 to get an answer of:
9*2=18
hope this makes sense!
