The length of a man's shadow is directly proportional with his height.
At the same time of day, a man who is 1.8 meters tall casts a 25.2
meter shadow and his son casts a 21 meter shadow. What is the
height of the man's son, in meters? If necessary, round to the nearest
tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The man's son height is 1.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{x}{21} =\frac{1.8}{25.2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{21x1.8}{25.2}[/tex]

21x1.8= 37.8

A bag contains 6 red tiles and 15 yellow tiles. Lilia removes 2 red tiles. How many
yellow tiles should she remove so that the ratio of red tiles to yellow tiles in the
bag stays equivalent to 6:15? Show your work.

Answers

Answer:

I would remove 5 yellow tiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the beginning ratio was 6:15, I would start by finding the ratio of 1 red tile to ? yellow tiles. By multiplying 1 by 15, giving you 15, and dividing 15 by 6, I would find out that 1 red tile is equal to 2.5 yellow tiles. I would then set up an equation so there is 1/2.5 = 4/?, the 4 being the remaining red tiles after removing 2. I would then find the yellow tiles by multiplying whatever number the 1st numerator can be multiplied by to equal the 2nd numerator. Basically, I know that 1 multiplied by 4 is equal to 4, so I would multiply 2.5 by 4, which is equal to 10. Now that I know 4 red tiles is equal to 10 yellow tiles, I would remove 5 tiles to keep the ratio equivalent to 6:15

Maplewood Furniture Store is having a sale on dining room furniture. When a customer purchases a set of dining chairs, a one-time discount of $55 is applied to the total. During the sale, Rhianna buys a set of 6 chairs that match the table she inherited from her grandmother. Rhianna pays $455 in all. Which equation can you use to find the regular cost, c, of each chair? ( ANSWERS 6c - 55 = 455, 55(c - 6) = 455, 55c - 6 = 455, 6(c - 55) = 455,) What is the regular cost of the chair

Answers

Answer:

$85 per chair

Step-by-step explanation:

add the discount (55) to the total amount paid (455).

you should get 510

after this, divide 510 by 6 (because 6 chairs), and you should find that each chair costs $85

which of the following represents an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of -8.5?​

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

to have a common difference of -8.5, the sequence has to consistently go down by 8.5.

in the first one, y would go up by 2 every time x goes up by 1, so its not that one.

in the second one, it does go down by 8.5 the first time but the next time it goes down by 4.25, so it's not consistent.

in the third one, each time it goes down by 8.5 so this is the answer.

the fourth one also isn't correct because the graph shows that it is going up, so you know for sure it's not that one.

Answers

Answer:

y= 2x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form

y= mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the slope.

Since all the slope in the options are the same, let's focus on the y-intercept. From the graph, the line cuts through the y-axis at y= 1. Thus, the y- intercept is 1.

Hence, y= 2x +1 is the correct option.

A typical tip in a restaurant is​ 15% of the total bill. If the bill is ​$90​, what would the typical tip​ be?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the tip be x.

You have to take 15% of 90 to get x.

The equation looks like

15/100 * 90 = x         Multiply the numerator of the fraction by 90

1350/100 = x            Divide by 100    

x = 13.50

So the tip is 13.50

There are other ways you could do this problem, but I think this is the most easily understood.

Question:-

A typical tip in a restaurant is 15% of the total bill. If the bill is $90, what would the typical tip be?

Answer:-

$13.50

Explanation:-

Let the tip be x.

→ x = [tex] 90 \times \frac{15}{100} [/tex]

Find the measure of the following: m arcTR = m arcTL = m ∠L = m ∠R = m ∠RTV =​

Answers

Applying the inscribed angle theorem, the missing measures are:

measure of arc TR = 106°

measure of arc TL = 74°

m∠L = 50°

m∠R = 37°

m∠RTV = 37°

The Inscribed Angle Theorem

Measure of an inscribed angle = half the measure of the arc it intercepts

Central angle = measure of intercepted arc

We are given the following:

LR and TV are diameters of the circle O.

m∠TOR = 106° (central angle)

Find measure of arc TR:

measure of arc TR = m∠TOR

measure of arc TR = 106°

Find measure of arc TL:

measure of arc TL = 180° - m∠TOR

measure of arc TL = 180° - 106°

measure of arc TL = 74°

Find m∠L:

m∠L = ½(measure of arc TR)

m∠L = ½(106°)

m∠L = 50°

Find m∠R:

m∠R = ½(measure of arc TL)

m∠R = ½(74°)

m∠R = 37°

Find m∠RTV:

m∠RTV = ½(measure of arc RV)

m∠RTV = ½(180 - 106)

m∠RTV = ½(74)

m∠RTV = 37°

elliot's jogging rate is 9 km/h. how many kilometers can he travel in
a) 2 hours?
b) t hours.
50 POINTS AND BRAINILEST!

Answers

Answer:

A=18km B=equation is 9t

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's how I found the answer!

A: Here is our current proportion:

9km

--------

1 hr

Here is what we want:

9km       xkm

------- = --------

1h            2h

Now, what did I do to 1 to get to 2? I multiplied by 2.

Since this is a ratio, it needs to be proportional.

So, we need to do the same thing for the numerator, 9.

9*2=18.

A=18km

B: This question is asking for an expression, which would be 9t. 9 is the amount he jogs per hour, and t is the hour that is unknown.

The distance travelled by Elliot's is 18 hours.

Given that, Elliot's jogging rate is 9 km/h.

What is the speed?

The speed formula can be defined as the rate at which an object covers some distance. Speed can be measured as the distance travelled by a body in a given period of time. The SI unit of speed is m/s.

a) The formula to find the distance is Distance = Speed × Time

= 9 × 2

= 18 hours

b) Distance = 9 × t

=9t hours

Therefore, the distance travelled by Elliot's is 18 hours.

8. 9.

Answers

Answer:

8. 14

9. 720

Step-by-step explanation:

Both questions are asking you to find the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) and LCM (Lowest Common Multiple).

8. Find the greatest number that can divide 392 and 462 exactly.

Find the GCD of 392 and 462:

  1. Find the prime factorization of 392

2^3 × 7^2 (2 × 2 × 2 × 7 × 7)

  2. Find the prime factorization of 462

2 × 3 × 7 × 11

  3. To find the GCD, multiply all prime factors common to all numbers  

GCF = 2 × 7, therefore GCD = 14.

9. What is the smallest number that is divisible by 20, 48, and 72?

Find the LCM of 20, 48, and 72:

  1. Find the prime factorization of 20

2^5 (2 × 2 × 5)

  2. Find the prime factorization of 48

2^4 x 3 (2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3)

  3. Find the prime factorization of 72

2^3 x 3^2 (2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3)

  4. To find the LCM, multiply all prime factors

LCM = 2^4 × 3^2 × 5 (2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5), therefore GCF = 720

Calculator Input:

The easiest way to find the GCD or LCM of 2 or more numbers is by using a scientific calculator. Input GCD(x,y) or LCM(x,y) for the answer. This will work for any amount of numbers as long as the input is logical.

For questions 8 and 9, you would type in GCD(392,462) and LCM(20,48,72).

Not all calculators are made the same, so other labels might be GCF or HCF instead of GCD, and LCF instead of LCM. I use GCD and LCM because that's how it is on my calculator. There isn't any difference, so using any label is fine.

[tex]\log{\frac{I_1}{I_2}} = M_1 - M_2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{I_1}{I_2}[/tex] gives how much more intense earthquake 1 is compared to earthquake 2.

In this problem, [tex]M_1 = 6.2, M_2 = 3.8[/tex], then:

[tex]\log{\frac{I_1}{I_2}} = 6.2 - 3.8[/tex]
