It is less than 5.2, simply because the number is negative.
#2- yes because both can be divided or multiplied for example 3 and 9, u can multiply 3x3 to get 9 since the dilation is 3 then yes it is similar triangles
The mistake is n third line - adding 3w
96 + 2w =2(80 - 3w)
96 + 2w = 160 - 6w
+ 6w + 6w
96 + 8w = 160
- 96 -96
8w = 64
w = 8 weeks answer
Answer:
Positive-Real
Zero-Complex
Negative-Real
Really hope this is right
Answer:
3 metres
Step-by-step explanation:
If we draw this out, we'll see that there are actually two similar right triangles (see attachment), which means that we can set up a proportion.
The height of the lookout tower corresponds to the height of the wooden column, while the shadow of the lookout tower corresponds to the shadow of the wooden column. We can then write:
(height of lookout tower) / (shadow of tower) = (height of column) / (shadow of column)
16 / 12 = 4 / x , where x is the shadow / unknown we want to find
Cross-multiply:
16x = 48
x = 3
The answer is thus 3 metres.
