A student is standing next to a vertical flagpole. The top of the student's shadow
coincides with the top of the flagpole's shadow as shown.
not to scale
The student is 62 inches tall. The student estimates that the distance from the flagpole
to the point where the student is standing is between 21 and 22 feet. The student also
estimates that the length of the student's shadow is between 7 and 7 feet.
Based on the given information, what are the least and greatest possible heights, in
feet, of the flagpole? Explain how you arrived at your answers.
Answer:
The least possible height of the flagpole is 227.33 inches and the greatest possible height is 248 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for the system
Required
Determine the least and greatest heights of the flagpole
From the question, we have:
[tex]AB = 7\ to\ 7\frac{1}{2} ft[/tex]
[tex]BE =62in[/tex]
[tex]BC = 20\ to\ 21ft[/tex]
Convert AB and BC to feet (multiply by 12)
[tex]AB = 84in\ to\ 90in[/tex]
[tex]BC = 240in\ to\ 252in[/tex]
The height of the flagpole is represented as: CD
To calculate CD, we make use of the following equivalent ratios:
[tex]CD : AC = BE : AB[/tex]
Express as fraction
[tex]\frac{CD }{ AC } = \frac{BE }{ AB}[/tex]
Make CD the subject
[tex]CD = \frac{BE }{ AB} * AC[/tex]
From the attachment:
[tex]AC = AB + BC[/tex]
Where:
[tex]AB = 84in\ to\ 90in[/tex]
[tex]BC = 240in\ to\ 252in[/tex]
The possible values of AC are:
[tex]AC = 84 + 240 =324in[/tex]
[tex]AC = 84 + 252 =336in[/tex]
[tex]BC = 90 + 240 = 330in[/tex]
[tex]AC = 90 + 252 =342in[/tex]
So:
[tex]CD = \frac{BE }{ AB} * AC[/tex]
[tex]BE =62in[/tex]
When AC = 324 ; AB = 84
[tex]CD = \frac{62}{84} * 324[/tex]
[tex]CD = \frac{62* 324}{84}[/tex]
[tex]CD = \frac{20088}{84}[/tex]
[tex]CD = 239.14in[/tex]
When AC = 336 ; AB = 84
[tex]CD = \frac{62}{84} * 336[/tex]
[tex]CD = \frac{62* 336}{84}[/tex]
[tex]CD = \frac{20832}{84}[/tex]
[tex]CD = 248in[/tex]
When AC = 330 ; AB = 90
[tex]CD = \frac{62}{90} * 330[/tex]
[tex]CD = \frac{62 * 330}{90}[/tex]
[tex]CD = \frac{20460}{90}[/tex]
[tex]CD = 227.33in[/tex]
When AC = 342 ; AB = 90
[tex]CD = \frac{62}{90} * 342[/tex]
[tex]CD = \frac{62* 342}{90}[/tex]
[tex]CD = \frac{21204}{90}[/tex]
[tex]CD = 235.6in[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]CD = 239.14in[/tex]
[tex]CD = 248in[/tex]
[tex]CD = 227.33in[/tex]
[tex]CD = 235.6in[/tex]
The least possible height of the flagpole is 227.33 inches and the greatest possible height is 248 inches
The given range of the length of the shadow and distance of the student
from the tree of between 7 and [tex]7\frac{1}{2}[/tex] feet and 21 and 22 feet gives;
The greatest possible height of the flagpole in feet ≈ 21.8 feet
The least possible height of the flagpole in feet = 19.3 feet
How can the height of the tree be calculated?Height of the student = 62 inches = [tex]5\frac{1}{6}[/tex] feet
Distance of the flagpole to the student = 21 to 22 feet = 252 to 264 inches
Length of the student's shadow = Between 7 and [tex]\mathbf{7\frac{1}{2}}[/tex] feet = Between 84 and 90 inches
Required:
The least and greatest height of the flagpole.
Solution;
By using similar triangles formed by the student and the flagpole, we
have;
[tex]\dfrac{Height \ of \ the \ student}{Length\ of \ the \ student's \ shadow} = \mathbf{\dfrac{Height \ of \ the \ flagpole}{Length\ of \ the \ flagpole's \ shadow}}[/tex]
Which gives;
[tex]\dfrac{62}{84 \ or \ 90} =\mathbf{ \dfrac{h}{252+(84 \ or \ 90) \ or \ 264 + (84 \ or \ 90)}}[/tex]
Based on the method of cross multiplication, h will be the greatest
possible value, when we have, the largest possible value for the
denominator on the right hand side and the least possible value for the
denominator on the left hand side of the equation, and vice versa.
Which gives;
[tex]\dfrac{62}{90} = \mathbf{\dfrac{h_{min}}{252 + 84}}[/tex]
[tex]h_{min} \ in \ feet = \mathbf{\dfrac{\dfrac{62}{90} \times (252 + 84)}{12}} \approx 19.3[/tex]
The least possible height of the flagpole in feet, [tex]h_{min}[/tex] ≈ 19.3 feet
Similarly. we have;
[tex]\dfrac{62}{84} = \mathbf{\dfrac{h_{max}}{264 + 90}}[/tex]
Which gives;
[tex]h_{max} = \dfrac{62}{84} \times (264 + 90) \approx 261.3[/tex]
[tex]h_{max} \ in \ feet \approx \dfrac{261.3}{12} \approx\mathbf{ 21.8}[/tex]
The greatest possible height of the flagpole in feet, [tex]h_{max}[/tex] ≈ 21.8 feet

Mr. Snyder begins traveling east on Interstate 90 from Spokane with a full tank of gasoline. His car has a 15-gallon gas tank and gets 30 miles per gallon during highway travel. Let m = the number of miles Mr. Snyder has driven Let g = the number of gallons of gas remaining in his tank Select in the letter of the equation that describes the relationship between the number of miles Mr. Snyder has traveled and the number of gallons remaining in his gas tank.
Answer:
[tex]g = 15 - \frac{1}{30}m[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Initial = 15[/tex]
[tex]mpg = 30[/tex] --- miles per gallon
Required
Determine an equation for this trip
First we have to get the number of gallons per mile from [tex]mpg = 30[/tex]
[tex]\frac{miles}{gallon}=30[/tex]
Inverse the equation
[tex]\frac{gallon}{miles}=\frac{1}{30}[/tex]
This represents the rate in gallons/mile
So, the equation is:
[tex]g= Initial - Rate * m[/tex]
[tex]g= 15 - \frac{1}{30} * m[/tex]
[tex]g= 15 - \frac{1}{30}m[/tex]

In a school, 30% of the students arrived by private car, 15 travel by taxi and the remainder walk to school. If the school has a population of 230, how many more students walk to school than arrives by car?
Answer:
57.5 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
The 30% students would be arrived by private car
So 15% would be travelled by taxi
And, the remaining i.e. 55% would be walk to school
Since the population of the school is 230
So by car, the students would be
= 230 × 0.30
= 69
By walk, the students would be
= 230 × 0.55
= 126.50
Now the more students would be
= 126.50 - 69
= 57.5 students

Suppose that appoximately 261,000,000 people live in the united states. Of these people 37,600,000 speak a language other than english at home who speak another lanague at home over 45 percent speak spanish
Answer:
16,920,000 people speak Spanish at home in the United States, which represents 6.48% of the country's population.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that approximately 261,000,000 people live in the United States, and of these people 37,600,000 speak a language other than English at home, of which over 45 percent speak Spanish, to determine the number of people who speak Spanish in the United States, the following calculation has to be done:
37,600,000 x 0.45 = X
16,920,000 = X
261,000,000 = 100
16,920,000 = X
16,920,000 x 100 / 261,000,000 = X
6.48 = X
Thus, some 16,920,000 people speak Spanish at home in the United States, which represents 6.48% of the country's population.

(2x + 5) cm
The diagram shows a cuboid of volume V cm3
(a) Show that V = 15 + 16x - x (squared) - 2x (cubed)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the cuboid = ((2x + 5) cm
Width of the cuboid = (3 - x) cm
Height of the cuboid = (2x + 5) cm
Since, volume of the cuboid = Length × Width × Height
= (2x + 5)(3 - x)(x + 1)
= [2x(3 - x) + 5(3 - x)](x + 1)
= (6x - 2x² + 15 - 5x)(x + 1)
= (-2x² + x + 15)(x + 1)
= x(-2x² + x + 15) + 1(-2x² + x + 15)
= -2x³ + x² + 15x - 2x² + x + 15
= -2x³ - x² + 16x + 15

A bus averages 2miles per hour faster than a motorcycle. If the bus travels 165miles in the same time it takes the motorcycle to travel 155miles, then what is the speed of each?
Answer:
speed of bus = 33 mi/hr
speed of motorcycle = 31 mi/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed of the motorcycle be x mi/h.
Now, we are told that the bus averages 2 mi/hr faster than the motorcycle. Thus, speed of bus = (x + 2) mi/hr
Formula for time is; t = distance/speed
Since distance covered by bus is 165 miles, then t_bus = 165/(x + 2)
Since distance covered by motorcycle is 155 miles, then t_motorcycle = 155/x
We are told that the bus and the motorcycle used the same time to cover their respective distances. Thus;. t_bus = t_motorcycle
Thus;
165/(x + 2) = 155/x
Cross multiply to get;
165x = 155(x + 2)
165x = 155x + 310
165x - 155x = 310
10x = 310
x = 310/10
x = 31 mi/hr
Then speed of bus = 31 + 2 = 33 mi/hr

Answer:I got the answer correct because i have to take the test
Step-by-step explanation:
The relation between the area and the circumference is given by:
"The area is 1/2 times the radius times the circumference".
How to find the measures of a circle?
We know that for a circle of radius R we have:
Circumference = P = 2*pi*RArea = A = pi*R^2.If you take the quotient between the area and the circumference, you get:
A/P = (pi*R^2)/(2*pi*R) = R/2
So the area is R/2 times the circumference, or, using the terms given in the list:
"This means that the area is 1/2 times the radius times the circumference"
