Tom the turkey is 2.5 feet tall and he casts a shadow that is 4 feet. The Thanksgiving Parade float version of Tom is 14 feet tall. How long is the shadow of the parade float?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

22.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Height = 2.5ft[/tex]

[tex]Shadow = 4ft[/tex]

Required

Determine the shadow of 14 ft Tom

The given parameters represents direct variation.

Let x represents the shadow of Tom.

So, we have:

When

[tex]2.5ft\ height = 4ft\ Shadow[/tex]

[tex]14ft\ height = x[/tex]

Cross Multiply:

[tex]2.5 * x = 14 * 4[/tex]

[tex]2.5 * x = 56[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x = 56/2.5[/tex]

[tex]x = 22.4[/tex]

Hence, the height of the shadow is 22.4ft

Maria deposited $5,700 in an account that earns 8% simple interest. Maria made no withdrawals or deposits. What will be the total amount of money in her account after 6 years?

Answers

Answer:

The total amount of money in Maria's account after 6 years is $8436

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

principal amount , P = $5,700

interest rate, r = 8 % = 0.08

time of investment, t = 6 years

The interest on the invested money after 6 years is given by;

I = Prt

I = $5,700 x 0.08 x 6

I = $2736

Total amount in Maria's account is given by;

A = P + I

A = $5,700 + $2736

A = $8436

Therefore, the total amount of money in Maria's account after 6 years is $8436

Erika and Bradley want to hike the Big Cypress Trail. They will hike a total of 72 milles FErika and Bradley want to hike 16 miles each day, how many days will they hike exadty 16 miles? They will hike exactly 16 miles each day for days.

Answers

Answer: They will hike exactly 16 miles each day for 4 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total distance to hike = 72 miles

They hike 16 miles per day.

Total days they will take to complete the distance = [tex]\dfrac{\text{Total distance to hike}}{\text{Distance hiked each day}}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{72}{16}\\\\=\dfrac{9\times8}{2\times8}=\dfrac92\\\\=4\dfrac12[/tex]

It will take 4 complete days and a half day to complete the journey.

i.e. They will hike exactly 16 miles each day for 4 days.

Molly invested $50,000 in various stocks and bonds. She earned 15% on the bonds and 18% on the stocks. Molly's total profit on both types of investments was $8700, how much of the $50,000 did she invest in bonds?

Answers

Answer:

$10000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Molly invested $50,000 in various stocks and bonds.

She earned 15% on bonds and 18% on stocks

Let the bonds be denoted by a

However, her profit on both types of investment is said to be $8700

We are to find how much of the $50,000 did she invest in bonds.

i.e

0.15a + 0.18(50000-a)  = 8700

open brackets

0.15a + 9000 - 0.18a = 8700

Collect like terms

0.15a - 0.18a = 8700 - 9000

-0.03a  = -300

Divide both sides by(-0.03); we get

a = 10000

Thus, Molly invested $10000 in the bonds.

given f(x) and g(x) = f(x + k) use the graph to determine the value of k

Answers

answer:
g(x) = f(x+6)
x = 6

step-by-step explanation:
given:
g(x) = f(x+k)

if value of k > 1 then the graph shifts k units to the left.
if value of k < 1 then the graph shifts k units to the right.

from the graph, it is clear that the function g(x) has moved 6 units (-4 to -10) to the left of f(x). this shows that the value of k > 1 and it is = 6 units

thus the transformation rule can be given as:
g(x) = f(x+6)
k = 6

In 1978, he played the title role in Superman. He received very positive reviews for his performance and starred as Superman in all the sequels. Reeve was soon acting as the lead role in dozens of movies after Superman. Once well-known, Reeve used his celebrity status for good causes, such as visiting very sick children through the Make-A-Wish foundation. He was also a track and field coach at the Special Olympics.Besides acting, Reeve was also a licensed pilot and liked horseback riding.

Being confined to a wheelchair did not hold back Reeve from being socially active, and after many surgeries and rehabilitation, he decided to dedicate his life to helping people with spinal-cord injuries. He created the Christopher Reeve Foundation, which supports the improvement of the lives of people with disabilities and helps fund research to find a cure for paralysis.
