Answer:

1249. 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Pole length , Pl = 2 fts

Pole shadow, Ps = 20 in = (0.0833 * 20) = 1.666 ft

Tower length, Tl = 125 ft

Tower shadow, Ts = x

Pl / Ps = Tl/ Ts

2/ 1.666 = 125 / x

Cross multiply

2x = 125 * 1.666

2x = 208.25

x = 104.125 ft

x = 104.125 * 12 = 1249. 5 inches

Find the values of x and y
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

x = 15°

y = 59°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles at a right angle add up to 90°

41 + y = 90

y = 90 - 41

y = 59°

Angles in a triangle add up to 180°

41 + (2x - 9) + 7x + 13 = 180

41 + 13 - 9 + 2x + 7x = 180

45 + 9x = 180

9x = 180 - 45

9x = 135

x = 135/9

x = 15°

Answer:

2 should be distributed as 2y + 16; y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to distribute 2, then:

Now we have to sum (-2y) in both sides of the equation:

Finally we have to divide both sides of the equation in 2:

Then the answer is 2 should be distributed as 2y + 16; y = 8

Hope this helps.
