Set up and solve an equation of ratios. Comparing shadow lengths, we get 100/6; comparing heights, we get x/8. Set these two ratios equal to one another and solve the resulting equation for x:
100 x
----- = ------ Then 6x=800, and x = 800 feet^2 over 6 feet. Your answer
6 8
must have the unit of measurement "ft."
That'd be : 28.8 . I hope this helps. This is it step by step.
60/x=100/48
<span>(60/x)*x=(100/48)*x </span>
<span>60=2.08333333333*x
</span>(2.08333333333) to get x
<span>60/2.08333333333=x </span>
<span>28.8=x </span>
<span>x=28.8</span>
I need a bad bleep umm Addison Rae??
