Answer: 6.75 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, the ratio of the side of the similar triangle = 2 : 3
Thus, by the property of similar triangle,
The ratio of the altitudes of the triangle = 2 : 3
Let the altitude of smaller triangle = 2 x
And, the altitude of larger triangle = 3 x
Where x is any number.
According to the question,
2 x = 4.5
x = 2.25
Therefore, the altitude of larger triangle = 3 × 2.25 = 6.75 feet

10.5 hours
let t be time then distance travelled by both is
Mr Burges ⇔ d = 50t ( distance = speed × time )
Mrs Burges ⇒ d = 70(t - 3)
At the point of overtaking both will have travelled the same distance
equating their distance and solving for t
70(t - 3) = 50t
70t - 210 = 50t ( subtract 50t from both sides )
20t - 210 = 0 ( add 210 to both sides )
20t = 210 ( divide both sides by 20 )
t = 10.5 hours
Salutations!
To find the nth term, you will be needing a formula.

a stands for the first term (first number in the sequence)
d stands for the difference between two terms. (always remember to subtract from the 2nd term to the 1st term)
and the n is what we are going to find
so in your sequence: 5, 10, 15, 20
5 is a (as it is the first term)
d would be 5 ( 10 -5 =5)




your nth term is

Hope this helps!
Have a great day!
