So let's start out by labeling Ethan as X
Since 85 is 1/3 of what Ethan drove, that means Ethan drove 3 times of 85.
85= (3x) -21
85 -21 = 3x
60=3x
20 = x
Answer:
22 3/4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram seems to show a 6 1/2 ft person casting a 9 ft shadow at the same time a flagpole is casting a 31 1/2 ft shadow. You want the height of the flagpole.
<h3>Proportion</h3>
Shadow lengths are presumed proportional to the height of the object making them. This means ...
h/(31 1/2) = (6 1/2)/9 . . . . . all lengths in feet
Multiplying by 31 1/2, we get ...
h = (31 1/2)(6 1/2)/9 = (819/4)/9 = 91/4
h = 22 3/4 . . . . ft
The flagpole is 22 3/4 feet tall.
Answer:
-2<x<8
see below for graph
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to solve the inequality.
Inequality: |x-3|<5
Split into two equations:
x-3<5
x-3>-5 (notice how the sign is flipped when we make the number negative)
let's start with x-3<5
add 3 to both sides
x<8
now
x-3>-5
add 3 to both sides
x>-2
The graph is below
the intersection is the solution.
Notice how I made the maroon line go to the right- which shows that it's greater than (for x>-2) and the silver line go to the left, which shows that it's less than (for x<8)
the equation is -2<x<8
Hope this helps!

Answer:
C. 184 ft²
Step-by-Step Explanation:
The formula for the surface area of a triangular prism is
SA = bh + 2ls + lb; where b = base, h = height, l = length, s = side
First, substitute the known value into the equation:
b = 6 ft
h = 4 ft
l = 10 ft
s = 5 ft
SA = (6)(4) + 2(10)(5) + (10)(6)
Then, all we have to do is simplify:
SA = 24 + 2(50) + 60
SA = 24 + 100 + 60
SA = 184 ft²
Hope this helps!
