First, let's find out the number of minutes Emily has to get to school. From 8:25 to 8:50, there are 25 minutes.
Next, let's find out the number of minutes before Emily looks at her watch. From 8:25 to 8:28.50, there are 3.5 minutes.
Now let's calculate Emily's speed in miles per minute. To do so, divide the distance traveled by the time it took:
miles/minute
Now let's calculate how far Emily can travel in 25 minutes going this speed. To do so, we multiply her speed by the time traveled:
miles
5.357 miles is greater than 3.42 miles, so yes, Emily will make it to school on time.

Answer:
15 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Nicole measured the shadow of the snow sculptures highest point to be 10 feet long. At the same time of day Nicole's shadow was 40 inches long. Nicole is five feet long.
We will use proportions to solve our given problem as proportions states that two fractions are equal.
Let us convert given measurements from feet to inches.
1 feet = 12 inches.
10 feet = 10*12 inches = 120 inches.
5 feet =5*12 = 60 inches
Let us multiply both sides of our equation by 120.
So the height of the snow sculpture is 180 inches. Let us convert our final answer to feet by dividing 180 by 12.
Therefore, the height of the snow sculpture is 15 feet.
