Answer: 33
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Jacob is 5 and 1/2 tall. He caused a 8 foot shadow, and we know that the flagpole causes a 48 foot shadow. 48/8 equal 6, meaning we need to multiply his height by that. 5 1/2 time 6 is 33
Answer:
There are 8 penguins and 6 reindeers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Brian, the gorilla, was planning a party for his zoo friends, and he sent his elves Jamie and Nancy into the North Pole exhibit to count the penguins and reindeer, and Jamie said there were 40 legs and Nancy said there were 14 heads To determine how many penguins and reindeer were in the exhibit, the following calculation must be performed:
Penguins: 1 head and 2 legs
Reindeers: 1 head and 4 legs
40 - (14 x 2) = X
40 - 28 = X
12 = X
12/2 = 6
14 - 6 = 8
8 x 2 + 6 x 4 = X
16 + 24 = X
40 = X
Therefore, there are 8 penguins and 6 reindeers.
