Remark
Make up a proportion that relates the tree and its properties to the stick and its properties.
Givens
Stick height (s_h) = 4
Stick shadow(s_s) = 2
Tree shadow = t_s = 18
Tree height = x
Formula
s_h / s_s = x / t_s
Substitute and solve.
4/2 = x / 18 Cross multiply
4*18 = 2 * x
72 = 2x Divide by 2
72/2 = x
x = 36
The height of the tree is 36 feet.
Answer:
Option 1 - Using the Subtraction Property of Equality, 2 is subtracted from both sides of the equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Process
Step 1: 4x + 2 = 10
Step 2: 4x = 8
To find : Which justification describes the process?
Solution :
From step 1 to step 2, we subtract 2 both sides
Step 1: 4x + 2 = 10
Subtracting 2 both side,
⇒ 4x + 2-2 = 10-2
Step 2: 4x = 8
So, The best justification is 'Using the Subtraction Property of Equality, 2 is subtracted from both sides of the equation'.
Therefore, Option 1 is correct.
Answer:
50%
Step-by-step explanation:
25 x 50% = 12.5
12.5$ off is more than 10$ off
-16+-x/4=-3
-x/4=13
-x=52
x=-52
