Use similar triangles
distance of man from puddle = 0.5 m.
distance of puddle from tower = 13 - 0.5 = 12.5 meters
so we have 2 similar triangles
one has height 2 m and base 0.5 m and the other has height x m ( the tower) and base 12.5 m
Corresponding sides are in the same ratio, so
2 / x = 0.5 / 12.5
0.5x = 2*12.5 = 25
x = 25 / 0.5 = 50 m
The tower is approx 50 m high.
Answer:
y = -8x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the y = mx +b for the slope intercept form, the m stands for the slope and the b stands for the y-intercept.
In this case, the slope is -8 and the y-int is 4 so we naturally plug those in
Let's say you are walking down the street and you see a lemonade stand. One of the workers tell you that if you buy a lemonade you will have to buy 5 times that amount to sit down and a lemonade cost $2. you order 2 lemonades. after grabbing your drink you feel like sitting down. so you go up to the stand and and attempt to purchase a seat.
5($2x2)=x
(THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE)
