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>
Y =ax² + bx +c
1) Point (0,7)
7 = a*0² +b*0 +c
c = 7
y=ax² + bx + 7
2) Point (1,4)
4=a*1² + b*1 + 7, ----> 4 = a +b + 7, ------>
a+b= - 3
3) Point (2, 5)
5=a*2² + b*2 + 7, ----> 5=4a+2b +7,---> -2=4a+2b, ---->
-1=2a + b
4)
a+b= - 3, ----> b= -3 - a (substitute in the second equation)
2a+b= -1
2a - 3 - a = -1, ----> a - 3 = -1,
a =2
5) a+b= - 3
2 + b = -3
b = -5
y=2x² - 5x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 is equal to R6.
So 2 halves mean R6+R6=R12
Or
R6×2= R12
Answer:R12
