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:
A shape that can be pushed to make a different shape
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's form the difference of the two expressions and see what we can learn.
(2y -x) -(2x -y) = 2y -x -2x +y = 3y -3x = 3(y -x)
Since y > x, this is positive, so 2y -x is greater than 2x -y.
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to set them up as a fraction and see if they are an equivalent fraction and if they are thats the proportion
