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:
There are 1084 pupils in that school.
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 542 girls and boys then you would have to double 542 to get the total number of people. So, there are 1084 people in that school.

Answer:
- 
= 
Step-by-step explanation:
C
6 x 8 = 32
7 x 3 = 21
32 - 21 = 27
It's easy if you just break it into pieces...
1/3 OF the 4/9 French OF people on the bus (27) also speak German.
Of= Multiply
1/3*4/9*27/1=4 speak French AND German
Using the Slope Equation
Pick two points on the line and determine their coordinates.
Determine the difference in y-coordinates of these two points (rise).
Determine the difference in x-coordinates for these two points (run).
Divide the difference in y-coordinates by the difference in x-coordinates (rise/run or slope).
