Answer:
22 3/4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram seems to show a 6 1/2 ft person casting a 9 ft shadow at the same time a flagpole is casting a 31 1/2 ft shadow. You want the height of the flagpole.
<h3>Proportion</h3>
Shadow lengths are presumed proportional to the height of the object making them. This means ...
h/(31 1/2) = (6 1/2)/9 . . . . . all lengths in feet
Multiplying by 31 1/2, we get ...
h = (31 1/2)(6 1/2)/9 = (819/4)/9 = 91/4
h = 22 3/4 . . . . ft
The flagpole is 22 3/4 feet tall.
Answer:
Kelly has read 2/3 of the poem.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you divide the 10 pages she has read by the total 15 pages, you get 0.66. Another way to get this is to put 10 over 15. Divide both the numerator and denominator by 5 to get 2/3.
Answer:
The slope of the line is -5
(20 + 22 + 17) - 7 - 12 - (9 - x) = 37;
59 - 19 - 9 + x = 37;
31 + x = 37;
x = C) 6
Answer:
The factor of 12x^2 + 16 is 4x (3x+4)
