Answer:

59.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion

Tree 1

17 feet tall

10 feet shadow

Tree 2

35 feet tall

x feet shadow

17/10= 35/x

(17)(35)= (10)(x)

595= 10x

/10    /10

59.5= x

The cast shadow of the second tree is 59.5 feet

Helen and Rebecca baked some muffins in the ratio 2:5. After Helen baked another 12 muffins, the ratio become 1:2. How many muff
storchak [24]
<h3>Answer:  60 muffins</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

x = some positive whole number

2x = amount Helen baked initially

5x = amount Rebecca baked initially

Notice that the ratio 2x:5x reduces to 2:5 after dividing both parts by x.

So (2x)/(5x) = 2/5

Helen then bakes another 12 muffins, bumping the 2x up to 2x+12. The ratio is now 1:2, which means,

(amount Helen bakes)/(amount Rebecca bakes) = 1/2

(2x+12)/(5x) = 1/2

2(2x+12) = 5x*1 .... cross multiply

4x+24 = 5x

24 = 5x-4x

24 = x

x = 24

From here, we then can say,

  • Helen = 2x+12 = 2*24+12 = 48+12 = 60
  • Rebecca = 5x = 5*24 = 120

Helen baked 60 muffins and Rebecca baked 120 muffins. We see that 60:120 reduces to 1:2 after dividing both parts by the GCF 60.

Furthermore, note how

  • 2x = 2*24 = 48
  • 5x = 5*24 = 120
  • 48:120 reduces to 2:5 after dividing both parts by 24

This helps confirm we have the correct answer.

Which graph represents the function f(x)=4 / x
REY [17]

Answer: The graph of rectangular hyperbola represents the function f(x)=4/x.

Explanation: given function, f(x)= 4/x.

The above function shows equation of rectangular hyperbola or equilateral hyberbola.(because, it is the type of xy=c^2.)

Thus, the asymptote  of the given function must be perpendicular.

Moreover, if x=2, y=2, if x=-2, y=-2

                 If x=4, y=1, if x=-4, y=-1

Therefore, this hyperbola is passing through points (2,2), (-2,-2), (4,1) and (-4,-1).
