A pole that is 2.9 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.77 m long. At the same time, a nearby
tower casts a shadow that is 47.25 m long. How tall is the tower? Round your answer to the nearest meter.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

77 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 situations are similar , so the ratios of corresponding sides are equal.

let h be the height of the tower, then

[tex]\frac{2.9}{h}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1.77}{47.25}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

1.77h = 137.025 ( divide both sides by 1.77 )

h ≈ 77 m ( to the nearest metre )

A, B, and C are points of tangency in the given Circle, a m equals 6, BK equals 4 in the perimeter of mkn is 34 ​

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

according to tangent property

we get

AM=BMAN=CNBK=CK

Given that

AM=6BK=4

Thus our equation is

[tex] \rm \displaystyle 2AM + 2AN + 2BK = 34[/tex]

substitute the given values

[tex] \rm \displaystyle 2.6+ 2AN+ 2.4 = 34[/tex]

simplify multiplication:

[tex] \rm \displaystyle 12+ 2AN+ 8 = 34[/tex]

simplify addition:

[tex] \rm \displaystyle 2AN+ 20= 34[/tex]

cancel 20 from both sides:

[tex] \rm \displaystyle 2AN=14[/tex]

divide both sides by 2:

[tex] \rm \displaystyle AN=7[/tex]

AN=CN

hence,CN=7

therefore our answer is A

The length of a football field is 120 yards from one and one to the other end zone.​

So it is less than 120 yards

Triangle Inequality:  the lengths of any two sides of a triangle add up to more than the third side.

A motorboat averages 20 miles per hour (mph) in still water. It takes the boat the same amount of time to travel 3 miles with the current as it does to travel 2 miles against the current. What is the current's rate in mph?

Answers

Answer:

4 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Boat speed = 20 mph

speed of current = x mph

Distance against current = 2 miles

Distance with current = 3 miles

speed against current will be ; 20 - x

speed with current will be ; 20 + x

Time =distance / speed against time against = time with current

Solving Mathematically ;

2/(20-x )=3/(20 +x)

2(20+x )= 3( 20-x )

40+2x = 60-3x

3x +2x=20

5x=20

x = 20 / 5

x = 4 mph

Speed of current = 4 mph

There were x cupcakes at the beginning of a party. By the end of the party, 16 of them had been eaten. Using x, write an expression for the number of cupcakes that were left.

Answers

Answer: x - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there were x cupcakes at the beginning of a party and at the end of the party, 16 of them had been eaten, the expression for the number of cupcakes that were left will be gotten by subtracting the number of cupcake that have been eaten from the cupcakes at the beginning. This will be:

= x - 16

For example, if there were 20 cupcakes at the beginning and 16 was eaten, the number left will be:

= x - 16

= 20 - 16.

= 4

There'll be 4 left

How to solve this equation?

Answers

It says use the substitution method, so you would take the bottom equation, and since it says that x is equal to that, you would use that equation in place of the x in the top equation. so it would be 9y = 3(3y+3) - 9. You then distribute the 3 into the 3y +3, which gets you 9y = 9y + 9 - 9, which is also 9y=9y. Subtract 9y to get 0 = 0, which just means that there are infinite solutions to this equation. Whenever you get 0 = 0, all that means is that there are infinite solutions to this particular set of equations. Hope this helped!

Answer:

y=y

x=3y+3

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\left \{ {{9y=3x-9} \atop {x=3y+3}} \right.[/tex]

[tex]9y=3x-9[/tex]

Plug the second equation [tex]x=3y+3[/tex] into the above equation as x

[tex]9y=3(3y+3)-9[/tex]

Open up the brackets

[tex]9y=3(3y+3)-9\\9y=9y+9-9\\9y=9y\\y=y[/tex]

This system of equations has infinitely many solutions.

When graphed, the two lines will overlap each other.

Therefore, y=y and x=3y+3.

Answer: The mean is 6.

Step-by-step explanation: First you add all of the numbers together getting a total of 48. Next to find the mean you divide them by the total number of "dots". Lastly, you get the answer of 6 which is your mean.

Answer:

6.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you take the data on the dot plot, and write the numbers down from least to greatest.

The data set:

2,3,6,6,7,8,8,8

Now that you have the data reordered in a easier way to read, add up all the numbers that you got from the dot plot.

2+3+6+6+7+8+8+8=48

Next we count all the number in the data set we made.

2,3,6,6,6,7,8,8,8 = 8

The amount of numbers in this data is 8.

Lastly we then divide 48 by 8.

48/8= 6

So your answer is 6!

Write a system of equations to describe the situation below, solve using elimination, and fill in the blanks. Tori hosts a podcast about computers, and Wendy hosts a podcast about parenting. Both podcasts have a set duration for each episode. Last year, Tori released 40 episodes and Wendy released 16 episodes, for a total of 5,584 minutes of content. This year, Tori released 27 episodes and Wendy released 11 episodes, which lasted a total of 3,795 minutes. How long is each episode? Each episode of Tori's podcast is minutes long, and each episode of Wendy's podcast is minutes long.

Answers

Answer:

x = minutes of Tori's podcast = 88 minutes

y = minutes of Wendy's podcast = 129 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = minutes of Tori's podcast

y = minutes of Wendy's podcast

40x + 16y = 5,584 (1)

27x + 11y = 3,795 (2)

Multiply (1) by 11 and (2) by 16

440x + 176y = 61,424 (3)

432x + 176y = 60,720 (4)

Subtract (4) from (3) to eliminate y

440x - 432x = 61,424 - 60,720

8x = 704

x = 704/8

x = 88

Substitute x = 88 into (1)

40x + 16y = 5,584 (1)

40(88) + 16y = 5,584

3,520 + 16y = 5,584

16y = 5,584 - 3,520

16y = 2,064

y = 2,064/16

y = 129

x = minutes of Tori's podcast = 88 minutes

y = minutes of Wendy's podcast = 129 minutes
