Answer: The height of the palm tree is 21 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve this:
Actual height to shadow for both objects. The fraction equivalents must be equal.
6/8 = x/28 . Cross multiply
6(28) = 8x
168 = 8x Divide both sides by 8 (8's "cancel" on the right)
168/8 =8x/8
21 = x . This gives us the tree's height as 21 feet.
<em>Another way to solve this is to use the ratios, but simplify the first fraction</em>
<em>6/8 = 3/4</em>
<em>Then multiply the length of the shadow by 3/4</em>
<em>3/4 × 28 = height</em>
<em>28÷4 = 7 7 × 3 = 21</em>
<em>21 feet= the height of the palm tree.</em>
Answer:
x=1, y=1. (1, 1). The answer is D).
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-5y=-2
4x-7y=-3
--------------
4(3x-5y)=4(-2)
-3(4x-7y)=-3(-3)
------------------------
12x-20y=-8
-12x+21y=9
--------------------
y=1
3x-5(1)=-2
3x-5=-2
3x=-2+5
3x=3
x=3/3
x=1
I rounded it and the answer is 400
