We are given the height of Joe which is 1.6 meters, the length of his shadow is 2 meters when he stands 3 meters from the base of the floodlight.
First, we have to illustrate the problem. Then we can observe two right triangles formed, one is using Joe and the length of the shadow, the other is the floodlight and the sum of the distance from the base plus the length of the shadow. To determine the height of the floodlight, use ratio and proportion:
1.6 / 2 = x / (2 +3)
where x is the height of the flood light
solve for x, x = 4. Therefore, the height of the floodlight is 4 meters.
The area of the rectangle is 1,440 cm2.
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
10y+15=7y+45
10y-7y=45-15
3y=30
y=10
hope it helps you!
Answer:
(1,-12)
Step-by-step explanation:
-10+5y=-50
5y=-60
y=-12
10x-60=-50
10x=10
x=1
Answer:
I
Step-by-step explanation:
At least means greater than or equal to
a ≥ 10
That is a closed circle
We have a closed circle at 10
We have to be at least 10 years old
Closed circle at 10, line going to the right
