Answer:

h_t=9ft

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height of child h_c=3ft

Height of child's shadow  h_c_s=2ft

Height of tree's shadow h_t_s=6ft

Since position of Sun remains constant  

Generally the equation for Height of tree h_t mathematically given by

 h_t=f_{ts}\frac{h_c}{h_c_s}

 h_t=6*\frac{3}{2}

 h_t=9ft

If sum of first 6 digits of AP is 36 and that of the first 16 terms is 255,then find the sum of first ten terms.
Cloud [144]

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the sum of first n terms of an AP,

Sn = n/2 [2a+(n−1)d]

Given,

36= 6/2 [2a+(6−1)d]

12=2a+5d ---------(1)

256= 16/2 [2a+(16−1)d]

32=2a+15d ---------(2)

Subtracting, (1) from (2)

32−12=2a+15d−(2a+5d)

20=10d ⟹d=2

Substituting for d in (1),

12=2a+5(2)=2(a+5)

6=a+5 ⟹a=1

∴ The sum of first 10 terms of an AP,

S10 = 10/2 [2(1)+(10−1)2]

S10 =5[2+18]

S10 =100

This is the sum of the first 10 terms.

Hope it will help.
