PLZZZZ HELPPPPPPP!!!! A Person And A Building Cast A Shadow At The Same Time Of Day. The Person Is 5.8

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The height of the building is 50.75 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio between the height of the object and the casted shadow must be equal for all the objects, as the angle at which the source if light impacts them is the same.

For the person, we know that it is 5.8ft tall, and the shadow is 3.2ft long.

The ratio will be: 5.8ft/3.2ft = 1.8125

Now, if H is the height of the building, and the shadow that the building casts is 28ft, we must have:

H/28ft = 1.8125

Now we can solve this for H.

H = 1.8125*28ft = 50.75 ft

Then the height of the building is 50.75 feet.

Mr. Lester needs less than 12 cup but more than 13 cup of flour to make a sauce. Which of the following could be the amount of flour that he needs?
1/4 cup
7/12 cup
3/8 cup
7/8 cup

Answers

Answer:

3/8 cup

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out how many cups of flour he could use, let's convert the fractions into decimals. We are told that amount he needs is less than 1/2 and more than 1/3.

1/2 = 0.50

1/3 = 0.33

So, the amount he needs is less than 0.50 and more than 0.33. Now let's convert the answer choices to decimal form:

1/4 = 0.25

7/12 = 0.58

3/8 = 0.38

7/8 = 0.88

The only answer choice that is less than 0.50 but greater than 0.33 is 0.38, or 3/8 cup.

Answers

Answer:

we have added 9/4 to both sides of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

[tex]x^2+3x=6[/tex]

Here, a = 1, b = 3 and c = 6

We should add (b/2)^2 to the both sides of the equation.

(b/2)^2 = (3/2)^2 = (9/4)

[tex]x^2+3x+\dfrac{9}{4}=6+\dfrac{9}{4}\\\\(x+\dfrac{3}{2})^2=\dfrac{33}{4}\\\\x+\dfrac{3}{2}=\pm \dfrac{\sqrt{33}}{2}\\\\x= +\dfrac{\sqrt{33}}{2}-\dfrac{3}{2}, -\dfrac{\sqrt{33}}{2}-\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\=1.37,-4.37[/tex]

Hence, we have added 9/4 to both sides of the equation.

what is the slope of 1.5x+4.5y=18

Answers

Answer:

The x intercept is (12,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5x+4.5y=18  Subtract 1.5 x from both sides of the equation

4.5y=-1.5x+18  Divide both sides of the equation by 4.5

4.5y/4.5=-1.5x/4.5+18/4.5

y=-1/3x+4

The slope is -1/3

The y intercept is (0,4)

To find the x intercept, yet y=0 and solve.

1.5x+4.5y=18

1.5x+4.5(0)=18

1.5x=18  Divide both sides of the equation by 1.5

1.5x/1.5=18/1.5

x=12

The slope is 1/3. You subtract 1.5x on both sides and you are left with 4.5y = 18-1.5x. Then you divide by 4.5 on both sides and you get y=4-1/3x. The slope is always the number multiplied by x.

The Wildcats scored an average of 56 points per game during their four-game season. If the scores for their first three games were 48, 57, and 52, what was the score of their last game?

Answers

Answer:

67

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the average formula: average = sum of elements / number of elements

Let x represent the score of their last game, and plug in the average, other scores, and number of elements into the equation:

56 = (48 + 57 + 52 + x) / 4

Simplify:

56 = (157 + x) / 4

Solve for x, by first multiplying each side by 4:

224 = 157 + x

Subtract 157 from both sides:

67 = x

So, the score of their last game was 67.

A train leaves L.A. at 2pm and heads north at 50mph. If the next train leaves the station 3 hours later and heads north at 60 mph, what time will the second train catch up with the first?

Step-by-step explanation:

Start time = 2 PMSpeed of the first train = 50 mphSpeed of the second train = 60 mphTrains head same directionThe second train spends 3 hour less time than the first but both take same distance

Let the time in travel for the first train be x, then we have equation for distance:

50x = 60(x - 3)50x = 60x - 18060x - 50x = 18010x = 180x = 18 hours

Time when the second train caches up the first one:

Answer:

  y = 2/5x +32/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line is in slope-intercept form.

  y = mx + b . . . . . . m is the slope; b is the y-intercept

The value of the slope in the given line is m=2/5. A parallel line will have the same slope. In general, it will have a different y-intercept. That value can be found from the given point.

  y = 2/5x + b

  6 = 2/5(-1) +b

Each square in the grid is a unit square with an area of 1 square unit. What is the area of the figure? square units ​

Answers

Answer:

The total area of the figure is: 16 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The Area is basically a measure of how much space in square units there is inside an object.

Given that each square in the grid is a unit square with an area of 1 square unit.

The figure clearly shows that there are 14 complete squares and 4 half square units.

Thus, the total area of the figure is:

(1 × 14) + (1/2 × 4)

=14 + 2

= 16 square units

Therefore, the total area of the figure is: 16 square units
