Answer:
Y = -x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -x + 8
y = 1x + b
10 = 8 + b
b = 2
<span>Let the height of tree be denoted as AB and the shadow cast by the tree be BE. ABE is the triangle formed the tree, rays and the ground. Let the height of the person be CD and the length of his shadow be DE. CDE is the triangle formed by the person, rays and the ground.
We have two triangles. Both the person and the tree stand vertically over the horizontal ground, therefore they make 90 degrees with the ground. The angle formed at the ground is the same for the both the triangles. Therefore, by AA similarity the two triangles are similar.
We know that if two triangles are similar, then their sides are proportional.
Therefore,
AB/CD =BE/DE
AB/6 = 143/11
AB= (143/11) *6
AB = 78 ft.</span>
The answer is: Hint

2nd one is correct answer
Let's make an equation.
19,000x=24,320
This equation shows the percentage increase, which is x. Once we have x, we need to subtract 1 from it since in the equation the 1 shows that it's increeasing. All we need to do is divide both sides by 19,000.
24,320÷19,000
1,28-1=0.28; we need to multiply by 100 to find the increase.
0.28×100=28
So, the percentage increase is 28%.
