Answer:

140.63 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of 1 square tile = 11.25 inches

Number of tiles to cover the length of floor = 12.5

We need to find the length of the floor.

So, Length of floor is given by

Length of 1 square tile × Number of tiles

Hence, the length of floor is 140.625 inches.

3. A person standing 3 feet away from the base of a lamp post casts a shadow 4 feet long. If the person is 6 feet tall and walks

german

Answer:

533.33 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

x=3 feet

y=4 feet

Height of person,h=6 feet

$\frac{dx}{dt}=400 ft/min$

Triangle ABC and A'B'C are similar because all right triangles are similar

By using similarity property

$\frac{h'}{6}=\frac{7}{4}$

$h'=10.5 feet$

$x+y=3+4=7 feet$

$\frac{h'}{6}=\frac{x+y}{y}$

$\frac{10.5}{6}=\frac{x+y}{y}$

$10.5y=6x+6y$

$10.5y-6y=6x$

$4.5y=6x$

Differentiate w.r.t t

$4.5\frac{dy}{dt}=6\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{6\times 400}{4.5}ft/min$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=533.33ft/min$

Hence, If the person is 6 feet tall and walks away from the lamp post at a speed of 400 feet per minute then his shadow moving at the rate 533.33 ft/min

x= 42
cross multiply divide
