Answer:

Create a proportion.

\frac{5}{6} = \frac{305}{x}\\

This proportion is saying,

"If 5 corresponds to 6, then 305 corresponds to what?"

Cross multiply.

5x = 305(6)

5x = 1830

x = 1830 / 5

x = 366

So, the shadow of the statue should be 366 feet.

Sarah can eat 45 blueberries in 2 minutes. If she eats blueberries for 45 minutes straight, how many did she eat?
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

1012

Step-by-step explanation:

She eats 1012 because:

If she eats 45 in 2 minutes then she eats 22.5 in 1 minute.

This is because 45 ÷ 2 = 22.5

Sarah eats blueberries for 45 minutes so we multiply 22.5 by 45

22.5 × 45 = 1012.5

She ate 1012 full berries.

20 points help plz.

This area is equal to the sum of a circle with a radius of 5/2 in and a rectangle 5 by 15 in so:

A=πr^2+xy

A=π(2.5)^2+5*15

A=6.25π+75 in^2

A≈94.63 in^2  (to nearest hundredth) so

A≈95 in^2 (to nearest whole square inch)

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The Remainder theorem states that if f(x) is divided by (x - h) then

f(h) is the remainder, thus

division by (x - 1) then h = 1

f(1) = 4(1)³ - 7(1)² - 2(1) + 6

     = 4 - 7 - 2 + 6 = 1 ← remainder

The factor theorem states that if (x - h) is a factor of f(x), then f(h) = 0

Here f(1) = 1

Hence (x - 1) is not a factor of f(x)
