Step-by-step explanation:
an object and its shadow create a right-angled triangle.
2 objects and their shadows create 2 similar right-angled triangles.
that means the angles are the same, and the side lengths of one triangle all correlate with the corresponding side lengths of the other triangle via the same factor.
so,
42 × f = 6
f = 6/42 = 1/7
the length of Joel's shadow is then
20 × f = 20 × 1/7 = 2.857142857... ft
Answer:
1 hour and 8 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
After travelling 1 hour you’ve reached 60 miles. So you go 1 mile/ minute.
You have then 8 miles left. You get: 8 minutes. Which gives us the answer:
1 hour and 8 minutes.
Congruent to angle 1: 3, 5, 10, 8, and 6
congruent to angle 2: 4, 9, and 7
Answer:
1. 96%
2. $6000
3. 176
4. 20%
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 1/5 of 80% is 16%. 80+16=96
2. 25% of 8000 is 2000. 8000-2000= 6000.
3. 10% increase of 200 is 20. 20+200=220. 20 percent of 220 is 44. 220-44=176
4. if you increase the original salary by 20%, then decreasing it by 20% of the new salary will give you the old salary.
I am struggling thinking it is either the first or third one. Hope I narrowed it down a bit.
