Answer:

20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Lance the alien is 5 feet tall. His shadow is 8 feet long. At the same time of day, a tree's shadow is 32 feet long. What is the height of the tree?

We solve this using proportion of

Height/ Shadow

= 5/8 = x/32

Cross Multiply

8x = 5 × 32

x = 5 × 32/8

x = 20 feet

The height of the tree is 20 feet

A Bird Is flying 5 m/s. How far will it travel if it flies for 3minutes
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
The bird is flying at 5m/s, so
1 sec = 5 m

It flies for 3 mins
3 mins = 3 x 6sec
3 mins = 180 sec
The bird flies for 180 seconds

1 sec = 5 m
180sec = 5 x 180 = 900m

The bird flew 900m in 3 mins (Answer C)
