A 5 foot tall pole casts a 3 1/3 foot shadow. At the same time an oak tree casts a 20 foot shadow. How tall is the tree?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

30 feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion where x is the height of the tree

[tex]\frac{5}{3\frac{1}{3} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{20}[/tex]

Cross multiply and solve for x:

100 = 3[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]x

30 = x

So, the tree is 30 feet tall

There are cows and turkeys at a farm, 82 heads and 264 legs in all. There is no need to explain that a cow has four legs, while a turkey has two legs. How many cows and turkeys are at the farm? How can I solve this using elimination or substitution can I have steps please. No spamming please

Answers

Cows have 4 legs and turkeys have 2 legs. They each only have one head.
Cows+turkeys=82
4 cow legs + 2 turkey legs = 264
C+T=82
-T. -T
—————
C= 82-T wherever you see a “C” substitute this formula

4C+ 2T=264
4(82-T)+ 2T=264
(82*4)- (4T+2T)= 264

328-2T=264
-328. -328
————————
-2T= -64

-2T/-2= -64/ -2

T=32 there are 32 turkeys
There are 82 heads total
If we know there are 32 turkeys then the rest have to be cows.
82-32=50
Hope this helps!

A.y = 2x - 5

B.y = 2x + 5

C.y = 2x - 3

D.y = 2x + 3

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  C.  y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept (b) can be found from ...

  y = mx + b

  y - mx = b . . . . . subtract mx

Here, you are given (x, y) = (-1, -5) and slope m = 2.

  b = -5 -2(-1) = -5+2 = -3

The correct equation is ...

  y = 2x -3 . . . . . matches choice C

_____

On the graph, you can plot point (-1, -5) left of the y-axis 1 unit and down from the x-axis 5 units. The slope of 2 tells you the line will rise 2 units from there to a y-value of -3 when it runs 1 unit to the right to an x-value of 0. That point (0, -3) is the y-intercept, showing you that choice C is correct.

Adrian invested $790 in an account paying an interest rate of 6.9% compounded continuously. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are made, how long would it take, to the nearest year, for the value of the account to reach $2,550?​

Answers

Answer:17

Step-by-step explanation:

trust me its right, no cap

As per compound interest,  it would take 17 years for the value of the account to reach $2,550

What is the compound interest?

If the invested amount is 'P', the rate of interest is r%, and the time of investment is 'n' years, then the compound interest after mentioned duration is = P[1 -  [tex]e^{rn}[/tex]]

Given, the invested amount (P) = $790.

Rate of interest (r) = 6.9% = 0.069.

Let, the amount is invested for 'n' years.

The value of the amount after 'n' years = $2550.

Now, as per compound interest:

A = P. [tex]e^{rn}[/tex]

⇒ 2550 = 790 [tex]e^{(0.069n)}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]e^{(0.069n)}[/tex] = (2550 ÷ 790)

⇒ [tex]e^{(0.069n)}[/tex] = 3.23

⇒ 0.069n = 1.172

⇒ n = 17

Find the area of the composite figure?


Answers

Answer:

128

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by figuring out the last side of the triangle

we can use the pathagoryous theroem and get

11.9²+x²=16.9²

Solve this and get x=12

Let's now compute the area of the triangle

b*h*.5

12*11.9*.5=71.4

So 71.4 is the area of the triangle

we now need to find the area of the semi circle.

to do this we are going to find the area and then divide it by 2

We know that the length is equal to 12 which means that the radius is 6

so we have

π6²/2

which is 56.55

We add the 71.4+56.55= 127.94 which rounds to 128

Answer:

212.758

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the semi-circle first, the diameter is 16.9 ft.

To find area:

Formula:

pi x radius x radius x 1/2

16.9 ÷ 2 = 8.45 (radius)

22/7 x 8.45 x 8.45 = 224.407 (Circle)

224.407 ÷ 2 = 112.203 (Semi circle)

Find the triangle:

1/2 x base x height or length x base x height

But for now, we will use the first one.

1/2 x 16.9 x 11.9 = 100.555

Now add them up.

100.555 + 112.203 = 212.758

The midpoint of \overline{\text{AB}} AB is M(5, 1)M(5,1). If the coordinates of AA are (3, 6)(3,6), what are the coordinates of BB?

Answers

Answer:

(7, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating midpoint is expressed as;

M(X, Y) = (x2+x1)/2, (y1+y2)/2

X = x1+x2/2

Y = y1+y2/2

Given

X = 5, Y = 1, x1 = 3, y1 = 6

Get x2

X = x1+x2/2

5 = 3+x2/2

10 = 3+x2

x2 = 10-3

x2 = 7

Get y2;

Y = y1+y2/2

1 = 6+y2/2

2 = 6+y2

y2 = 2-6

y2 = -4

Hence the coordinate of B is at (7, -4)

Plug in each point into both equations to see which ones fit.

For the first point, (4,1) it works for both equations.

1=-2( 4 ) + 9, 1= -8 + 9, 1=1

4( 4 )+2( 1 )=18, 16 + 2 = 18, 18 = 18

Do it for the rest of the points and plug them in and you get,

no for (5,-3) because -1 does not equal to -3

no for (6,0) because -3 does not equal to 0

(-5,19) is yes because 19=19 and 18=18
