Ratio of height of the man to the length of the shadow = 6:9 = 2:3
Ratio of height of the tree to the length of its shadow = x:25 = 2:3
x/25 = 2/3
x = (25 x 2)/3 = 50/3 = 16.67
Therefore the approximate height of the tree to the nearest foot is 17 feet.
Answer: 4/5
Step-by-step explanation: For a line to be parallel to another line there must be two conditions true.
Condition 1: Both lines must have the same slope (i.e the same x in the form y = mx + b)
Condition 2: Both lines must have different y-intercepts (i.e different b in the form y = mx + b)
Thus, if you are looking for the slope of the line parallel to y = 4/5x - 3, we can look at condition 1, and see that the slope should also be 4/5 for the other line.
Answer:
0.40x = 320
Step-by-step explanation:
40 = percent, 320 = part. Write the percent as a decimal and multiply by the whole.
The missing number is 20
<h3>How to determine the number</h3>
We can see that the values at the top must be made equal to that at the bottom
For the top, we have
30 + 11 = 41
For the bottom, we should have:
21 + x = 41
Now, let's solve for 'x' to determine the missing figure;
21 + x = 41
collect like terms
x = 41 - 21
x = 20
Thus, the missing number is 20

Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-coordinate of the point where both lines intersect will give us the same solution for x.
At y = 4, both equations will have a corresponding x-value of 1.
Therefore, the value of y that that will make both equations have the same solution of x is 4.
