Height of the flagpole = x
distance from flagpole to the mirror = 48 ft
height of Michele = 5 ft
distance from Michele to the mirror = 12 ft
Now, set the proportion.
x/48 = 5/12
48 * x/48 = 5/12 * 48
x = 240/12
x = 20
So, the height of the flagpole is 20 ft.
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!
I don’t know if you can see this but I hope it does if u don’t understand let me know so I can explain!
Answer:
stop
Step-by-step explanation:
(of an event, action, or process) come to an end; cease to happen.
example "his laughter stopped as quickly as it had begun"
Answer:
r = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
-8 - 2(7r + 1) = -94
Add 8 to both sides
-2(7r + 1) = -86
Divide both sides by -2
7r + 1 = 43
Subtract 1 from both sides
7r = 42
Divide both sides by 7
r = 6
Hope this Helps
The sides of the triangle are given as 1, x, and x².
The principle of triangle inequality requires that the sum of the lengths of any two sides should be equal to, or greater than the third side.
Consider 3 cases
Case (a): x < 1,
Then in decreasing size, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
We require that x² + x ≥ 1
Solve x² + x - 1 =
x = 0.5[-1 +/- √(1+4)] = 0.618 or -1.618.
Reject the negative length.
Therefore, the lengths are 0.382, 0.618 and 1.
Case (b): x = 1
This creates an equilateral triangle with equal sides
The sides are 1, 1 and 1.
Case (c): x>1
In increasing order, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
We require that x + 1 ≥ x²
Solve x² - x - 1 = 0
x = 0.5[1 +/- √(1+4)] = 1.6118 or -0.618
Reject the negative answr.
The lengths are 1, 1.618 and 2.618.
Answer:
The possible lengths of the sides are
(a) 0.382, 0.618 and 1
(b) 1, 1 and 1.
(c) 2.618, 1.618 and 1.
