Answer:
38 2/3 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
In shadow problems, the usual assumption is that object height and shadow length are proportional.
height/length = b/16 = 5.8/2.4 . . . . . for building height b
b = 16(5.8/2.4) = 38 2/3
The building is 38 2/3 feet tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression is x⁴-kx²+4 =0
x−2 is a factor of the given expression.
So, x=2
Substitute in the equation, we get
2⁴-k(2)²+4
⇒16+4k+4=0
⇒4k=−20
⇒k=−5
3.1 as a decimal. And it as a mixed number wait a sec.......3 1/10
Hope I could help! :)
Answer:
Tanya is 20 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of Vera = x years
The age of Linda is twice the age of Vera = 2x years
Tanya is four less than four times the age of Linda = 4(2x)-4 = 8x-4
Total age of Vera, Linda and Tanya is:
x+2x+8x-4
Combine the like terms:
11x-4
But now their total age is two more than nine times the age of Vera:
11x-4 = 9x+2
Solve the expression
Combine the like terms:
11x-9x=2+4
2x=6
Divide both the sides by 2
2x/2 = 6/2
x= 3
Thus the age of Vera is 3 years.
The age of Linda is 2x= 2*3 = 6 years
The age of Tanya is 8x-4 = 8*3 - 4 = 24-4 = 20years....
