Nachelle is 1.45 meters tall. At 11 a.m., she measures the length of a tree's shadow to be 23.05 meters. She stands 18.9 meters away from the tree, so that the tip of her shadow meets the tip of the tree's shadow. Find the height of the tree to the nearest hundredth of a meter.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

this creates 2 similar triangles.

that means all angles are the same. and all the side lengths of one triangle correlate to the corresponding side lengths of the other triangle by the same multiplication factor.

her shadow is 23.05 - 18.9 = 4.15 m long.

the factor between the shadow lengths is then

4.15 × f = 23.05

f = 23.05 / 4.15 = 5.554216867...

the same factor now applies to the relation of the heights :

1.45 × 5.554216867... = 8.053614458... m

rounded the tree is 8.05 m tall.

Sally's Stuffed Animal Company charges $0.75 per pound to ship stuffed animals. Part A: Write an equation to determine the total cost, c, to ship p pounds of stuffed animals. Use your equation to determine the cost of shipping 2 pounds of stuffed animals. (6 points) Part B: If the company reduces the cost to ship the stuffed animals by $0.05 per pound, write an equation to determine the total cost, c, to ship p pounds of stuffed animals with the reduced cost. (4 points)

Answers

Part A :

Rate of shipping per pound of stuffed animal = $0.75

Therefore total cost for P pounds = C = 0.75 P

Cost of shipping 2 pounds of stuffed animals = 0.75*2 = $1.50

Part B :

If the cost is reduced by $0.05 per pound then the reduced cost per pound = 0.75 - 0.05 = $0.70

Therefore total reduced cost for P pounds = C = 0.70 P

Answer:

a = 6

b = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

They both need to have the same slope.

They both need to have the same y intercept

The second equation has a y intercept of 3/4

Therefore b in the first equation, must be 3/4

what is the tangent ratio of angle x°​

Answers

Answer:

tan x = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse of the triangle is 10 ft.

For angle x, the opposite leg is 6 ft, and the adjacent leg is 8 ft.

tan A = opp/adj

tan x = 6 ft / 8 ft

tan x = 3/4

Tan=opposite/adjacent. Opposite=6, adjacent=8. Tan=6/8. We can divide both terms by 2 to simplify to tan=3/4

Answer:

Length of the shadow = 20.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 32-meter height of a tall building, and its casted shadow of 38 meters, we can find the unknown length of the shadow by using the Pythagorean Theorem.

Definition:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that the squared length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squared lengths of the legs.

The algebraic representation of the Pythagorean Theorem is:  

                     c² (hypotenuse) = a² (leg₁) + b² (leg₂)

Solution

To solve for the given problem:

Let c = 38 m (distance from the top of the building to the tip of the shadow)

a = unknown length of the shadow

b = 32m (height of the building)

Since we have to solve for the value of a (unknown length of the shadow), we must algebraically solve for a:

c² = a² + b²

Subtract b² from both sides:

c² - b² = a²  + b² - b²

a² = c² - b²

Substitute the given values into the formula for solving a :

a² = c² - b²

a² = (38)² - (32)²

a² = 1444 - 1024

a² = 1444 - 1024

Next, take the square root of both sides to solve for a:

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\sqrt{(a)^2}\:=\:\sqrt{420}}[/tex]

a = 20.49 or 20.5 cm

Therefore, the length of the shadow is 20.5 cm.
