A boy stands 1 meter away from a lamppost. He is 1.8 meters tall and casts a shadow 2 meters long in the light from the lamp
The diagram is attached below using the given information
We have two similar triangle
Triangle ACD is similar to triangle ABE. So the sides are in proportional
AC = AB + BC = 3m
2x = 1.8 * 3 (cross multiply)
2x = 5.4
Divide by 2 on both sides
x = 2.7
Height of Lamppost is 2.7 meter

<em>Additional comment</em>
Many calculators and all spreadsheets can work with percentages directly. If yours can't, or if you can't do this arithmetic mentally, you can use the equivalent decimal or fraction for 5%.
5% = 5/100 = 0.05 = 1/20
Then 5% × $640 = $640/20 = $64/2 = $32.
Answer:
63.08 km
Step-by-step explanation:

= 63.08
So, you would drive 63.08 km
Answer:
i think it would be number 3.
Hope this helps.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
You would plot the following points, remembering that they’re in the form (x,y) = (time, height):
(1,35) (2,60) (3,92) (4,120) (5,175)
The ordered pairs would be closer together, and there would be 4 times more of them if you were to measure every 15 seconds instead. You would have a line with more points that were closer together.
