Answer:

5.25 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Height of Salem Sue = 38 feets

Height of Salem Sue's shadow = 57 feets long

Height of child standing next to the statue = 3.5 foot tall

Length of the child's shadow =?

Let lenght of child's shadow = s

IF;

38 Feets tall = 57 feets lenght

3.5 feets tall = s feets long

Cross multiply :

38 * s = 57 * 3.5

38s = 199.5

38s / 38 = 199.5 /38

s = 5.25

Hence, length of the child's shadow will be 5.25 feets long

What is the values of x?
olganol [36]

Answer:

x = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

complementary angle sum to 90°

sum the 2 angles and equate to 90

x + x + 22 = 90

2x + 22 = 90 ( subtract 22 from both sides )

2x = 68 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 34

How much money should be deposited today in an account that earns 7% compounded semiannually so that it will accumulate to $12,0
Korvikt [17]

Given rate is = 7% or 0.07

Total amount needed = $12000

Time = 4 years

Here, the  deposit is  compounded semiannually, means twice per year and this gives 8 annual compounding periods in 4 years.

The equation becomes:

P= \frac{12000}{(1+\frac{0.07}{2})^{2.4}}

P = \frac{12000}{1.035^{8}}

Solving it, we get P = $ 9112.93

Hence $9112.93 should be deposited today.

What is cos 28 degrees
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

The trigonometric function gives the ratio of different sides of a right-angle triangle. The value of cos(28°) is -0.9626.

<h3>What are Trigonometric functions?</h3>

The trigonometric function gives the ratio of different sides of a right-angle triangle.

\rm Sin \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}\\\\\\Cos \theta=\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}\\\\\\Tan \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\\\\\Cosec \theta=\dfrac{Hypotenuse}{Perpendicular}\\\\\\Sec \theta=\dfrac{Hypotenuse}{Base}\\\\\\Cot \theta=\dfrac{Base}{Perpendicular}\\\\\\

where perpendicular is the side of the triangle which is opposite to the angle, and the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle which is opposite to the 90° angle.

The cosine is the ratio of the base of the triangle and the hypotenuse of the triangle. Therefore, The value of cos(28°) is -0.9626.

Each of the students at piano recital takes about 8 3/4 minutes to introduce themselves and play 3 songs. There are 9 students p
Tomtit [17]

For this case we have that each student takes 8 \ frac {3} {4} minutes to perform and play 3 songs. Then, we convert the mixed number to a fraction:

8 \frac {3} {4} = \frac {4 * 8 + 3} {4} = \frac {32 + 3} {4} = \frac {35} {4}

Thus, each student takes\frac {35} {4} minutes.

If there are 9 students in the recital then we have:

9 * \frac {35} {4} = \frac {315} {4} = 78.75 minutes.

Thus, the recital lasts at least 78.75 minutes.

Answer:

The recital lasts at least 78.75 minutes.
