Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

9/25

find a number that both the top and bottom are divisible by,

23 is the greatest common division we can make such that the top and bottom remain whole numbers

so,

\frac{207 }{575} ÷23

=(207/23)÷(575/23)

=\frac{9}{25}

Use the dchnition of similarity to solve the following problem.
sveta [45]

Answer:

  1063 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For shadow problems, we assume the sun's rays are parallel, so the triangles formed are similar. That means the ratio of height to shadow length is the same for each object.

  h/(580 ft) = (5.5 ft)/(3 ft)

  h = (5.5 ft)(580/3) ≈ 1063 ft

The height of the monument is about 1063 feet.

Suppose that in a normal half hour of practice, a tennis player expends 280 calories of energy.
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

308 Calories

Step-by-step explanation:

So we start off with 280 as usual, but I will focus on the percent. The given percent is 110% "effort". What we would need to do here is, Firstly, change the percent into a decimal, and this is done by moving the decimal spot of 110%. What I mean is that 110.% and you move that little period over 2 times to the left and also remove the percent as for now because we will not need it. After that you would get 1.10. This is what we will multiply by. So if we did 280x1.10 it equals 308, and that is how I got 308

Hope this helps!
