. A flagpole is standing in front of City Hall. Percy, who is standing near the flagpole is 5' tall and casts a shadow 3' long. If the flagpole casts a shadow 36' long, how tall is the flagpole

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The flagpole is 60'(60 inches) tall

Step-by-step explanation:

A flagpole is standing in front of City Hall. Percy, who is standing near the flagpole is 5' tall and casts a shadow 3' long. If the flagpole casts a shadow 36' long, how tall is the flagpole

The formula is given as:

Height of percy/ Shadow of percy = Height of flagpole/Shadow of flagpole

Height of percy = 5 inches

Shadow of percy = 3 inches

Height of flagpole = ??

Shadow of flagpole =36 inches

= 5/3 = x/36

Cross Multiply

3 × x = 36 × 5

3x = 36 × 5

x = 36 × 5/3

x = 60 inches

Therefore, the flagpole is 60'(60 inches) tall.

Both company 1 and 2 charge $153.75 for cleaning 25 garment

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1

[tex]\frac{85.50-62.75}{10-5} =\frac{22.75}{5}=4.55[/tex]

y-62.75=4.55(x-5)

y-62.75=4.55x-22.75

c(n)=4.55x + 40

Equation 2

[tex]\frac{67.50-38.75}{10-5}=\frac{28.75}{5}=5.75[/tex]

y-38.75=5.75(x-5)

y-38.75=5.75x-28.75

c(n)=5.25x + 10

The system will be

Answers

Answer:

0.2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question:

2 miles = 10 minutes

Hence:

10 minutes = 2 miles

1 minute = x miles

Cross Multiply

10 minutes × x miles = 2 miles × 1 minute

x miles = 2 miles × 1 minute/10 minutes

x miles = 0.2 mile

Hence in 1 minute it would take her 0.2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If we drew an auxiliary line parallel to line [tex]p[/tex] and line [tex]q[/tex] that intersects the vertex of [tex]\angle 1[/tex], we would form three angles, one of them being

The largest of these angles corresponds with the angle marked as [tex]148^{\circ}[/tex].

Sally rides her bike 164.45 miles in two weeks. She averaged 12.65 miles per hour each time she rode. How many hours did it take her to ride 164.45 miles?

Answers

Answer: It took 13 hours by her to ride 164.45 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance =  164.45 miles

Average distance traveled = 12.65 miles per hour  (speed)

[tex]Time = \dfrac{Distance}{Speed}[/tex]

[tex]Time = \dfrac{164.45}{12.65}=\dfrac{16445}{1265}\\\\=13\text{ hours}[/tex]

Hence, it took 13 hours by her to ride 164.45 miles.

The angle of the elevation from the top of a 95 Todd building into a hot air balloon in the sky and 76° if the horizontal distance between the building in a horrible Luna is 354 feet find the height of a hot air balloon

Answers

Answer:

The height of the hot air balloon is 1514.54 feet approximately.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The angle of elevation from the top of a 95-foot tall building to a hot air balloon in the sky is 76. If the horizontal distance between the building and the hot air balloon is 354 feet, find the height of the hot air balloon

The figure is shown below:

Let the height of the balloon is AD, the height of the building is BC.

Draw a line BE parallel to CD.

Therefore, AD=x+95, BC=95 and BE=CD=354 ft

Now in triangle [tex]ABE[/tex].

[tex]\tan\theta=\dfrac{\text{Opp}}{\text{Adj}}[/tex]

[tex]\tan76^{\circ}=\dfrac{AE}{BE}[/tex]

[tex]AE\approx 4.01\times 354[/tex]

[tex]AE\approx 1419.54[/tex]

The height air balloon is 1419.54+95 =1514.54 ft

Hence, the height of the hot air balloon is 1514.54 feet approximately.

Answer:

  1. yes

  2. no

Step-by-step explanation:

We can label the equations [1] and [2] to make the transformations to the equivalent system easier to describe.

1. The equivalent system is [1] +[2] and 2×[1]. Both of these are described as allowed transformations.

  [1] +[2] is (-x +2y) +(-3x +9y) = (10) +(-15)  ⇒  -4x +11y = -5

  2×[1] is 2(-x +2y) = 2(10)  ⇒  -2x +4y = 20

These resulting equations match the ones proposed for the equivalent system.

  yes, the systems are equivalent

__

2. The first equation of the proposed "equivalent" system is [1] +[2]. The second equation has no relation to the equations of the given system.

  [1] +[2] = (-2x +3y) +(-11x -13y) = (14) +(-6)  ⇒  -13x -10y = 8

  no, the systems are not equivalent

(This is also shown in the attached graph. The original system is in red; the "equivalent" system is in green. Equivalent systems have the same solution. These do not.)

Let U = {q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z} A = {q, s, u, w, y} B = {q, s, y, z} C = {v, w, x, y, z}. List the elements in the set: A ∪ C Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

[tex]A \cup C=\left \{ \text{q, s, u, v, w, x, y, z} \right \}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: [tex]\text{U}=\left \{\text{q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z} \right \}[/tex], [tex]\text{A}=\left \{\text{q, s, u, w, y} \right \}[/tex], [tex]\text{B}=\left \{\text{q, s, y, z} \right \}[/tex],

[tex]\text{C}=\left \{\text{v, w, x, y, z} \right \}[/tex].

To find: The elements in the set [tex]A \cup C[/tex].

Solution:

We have,

[tex]\text{U}=\left \{\text{q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z} \right \}[/tex]

[tex]\text{A}=\left \{\text{q, s, u, w, y} \right \}[/tex]

[tex]\text{B}=\left \{\text{q, s, y, z} \right \}[/tex]

[tex]\text{C}=\left \{\text{v, w, x, y, z} \right \}[/tex]

Now, [tex]A \cup C[/tex] will contain all the elements in the set [tex]A[/tex] and all the elements in set [tex]C[/tex].

So, [tex]A \cup C=\left \{ \text{q, s, u, v, w, x, y, z} \right \}[/tex].

Hence, [tex]A \cup C=\left \{ \text{q, s, u, v, w, x, y, z} \right \}[/tex].

Find the measure of each acute angle. PLEASE HELP !!

Answers

Answer:

7x=42°

8x=48°

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of all interior angles in a triangle=180°

90+8x+7x=180

90+15x=180

15x=180-90

15x=90

x=90/15

x=6

The measure of each acute angle is 42° and 48°.

what is an Acute angle?

If an angle is less than 90 degrees, then it is called an Acute angle. Acute angles measure less than 90 degrees. Right angles measure 90 degrees. Obtuse angles measure more than 90 degrees.

Given there is a right triangle. since it's a right triangle angle one angle will always be 90 degrees.

Since the sum of all angles of any triangle is 180 degrees thus,

7x + 8x + 90 = 180

15x = 90

x  = 6

since each acute angles were 7x and 8x

hence those angles would be 42 and 48 degrees.

therefore, Each acute angle is 42° and 48° in size.
