A flagpole casts a shadow that is 25 feet long. A signpost near the flagpole is 3 feet tall, and it casts a shadow that is 5 feet long. How tall is the flagpole?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The ratio of shadow should be kept, then we have: x/25 = 3/5

=> x = 25 x 3/5 = 15

=> The flagpole is tall 15 feet

Hope this helps!

:)

Answer 2

Answer:

15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Length : shadow

3 : 5

X : 25

X/25 = 3/5

X = 25 × 3/5

X = 15

Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

-3= 4x - 5 becomes 5 - 3 = 4x when 5 is added to both sides.  Then:

2 = 4x, and x = 2/4, or x = 1/2.

The solution of the linear equation -3= 4x - 5 is x = 1/2.

The volume of the shipping box needs to be 1,144 cubic inches. The equation that models the volume of the shipping box is 8(n + 2)(n + 4) = 1,144.

Answer the following questions about the equation modeling the volume of the shipping box.

Question 1

Solve the equation that models the volume of the shipping box, 8(n + 2)(n + 4) = 1,144. If you get two solutions, are they both reasonable?

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

8(n + 2)(n + 4) = 1,144

FOIL

8(n^2 +2n+4n+8) = 1144

Divide each side by 8

8/8(n^2 +2n+4n+8) = 1144/8

(n^2 +2n+4n+8) = 143

Combine like terms

n^2 +6n+8 = 143

Subtract 143 from each side

n^2 +6n+8 -143= 0

Combine like terms

n^2 +6n -135 =0

Factor

What two terms multiply to -135 and add to 6

-9*15 =-135

-9+15 = 6

(n-9) (n+15) =0

Using the zero product property

n-9 =0    n+15=0

n = 9   n=-15

The length cannot be negative so n = -15 cannot be  a solution

n =9

Answer:

n = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

8(n + 2)(n + 4) = 1,144

(n + 2)(n + 4) = 143

n² + 2n + 4n + 8 = 143

n² + 6n - 135 = 0

n² + 15n - 9n - 135 = 0

n(n + 15) - 9(n + 15) = 0

(n - 9)(n + 15) = 0

n = 9, -15

since n is a length, it can not be negative

Therefore the only solution is n = 9

Which shows how the distributive property can be used to evaluate 7x8 4/5?

a. 3/20

d. 2/5​

Answers

Answer:

b) 8/40 = 1/5

The probability of the relative frequency for females in the age group 60-69 is 0.625.

We know that the probability of a function is the ratio of favorable cases to the total number of cases possible.

here we have to find the probability that a resident is female.

What is the formula for probability?

[tex]Probability=\frac{Total \ numbers \ of \females}{Total \ number \of people}[/tex]

here the total number of females are=19+2+4

                                                              =25

and the total number of males=1+9+5

                                                   =15

Hence, the total number of people=25+15=40

So Probability=25/40

                      =0.625

Hence option D is correct.

If you take out a loan that costs $561 60 over eight years at an interest rate of 9% how much was the loan for?

Answers

Answer:

The loan was $28184.81

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the loan amount be x

Rate of interest on Loan = 9%

Time = 8 years

Amount of loan over 8 years = $56160

Formula : [tex]A=P(1+r)^t[/tex]

Where A = Amount =56160

P = Principal = x

r = rate of interest = 9% = 0.09

t = time = 8 years

Substitute the values in the formula :

So,[tex]56160=x(1+0.09)^8[/tex]

[tex]\frac{56160}{(1+0.09)^8}=x[/tex]

$28184.81=x

Hence The loan was $28184.81

factorise 15x- 10x^3

Answers

Answer:

5x (3-2x^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

so all you have to do is 15x-10x=5x right?, then all you have to do is 15/5=3. 10x/5x=2x. then subtract 1 from the exponents. then you get the answer. okay Im sure about the fist part and the divison but not the exponents, I did use a calculator to check it though.

The factorize equation is, [tex]\rm 5x (\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2}x) (\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}x}) = 0[/tex].

The roots of the equation are [tex]0 , \ \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2} }, \dfrac{-\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2} }[/tex].

Given that,

Equation; [tex]\rm 15x - 10x^3[/tex]

We have to determine,

Factorize the equation and factor of the equation.

According to the question,

To factorize the equation and determine the factor of the equation following all the steps given below.

Equation; [tex]\rm 15x - 10x^3[/tex]

Step1; Taking the term 5x common from the equation,

                   [tex]\rm = 15x - 10x^3 = 0 \\\\= 5x (3-2x^2) = 0[/tex]

Step2; Simplify the equation,

                   [tex]\rm = 5x (3-2x^2) = 0\\\\ = 5x (\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2x}) (\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2x}) = 0[/tex]

Step3; The roots of the equation are,

                    [tex]\rm = 5x (\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2}x) (\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}x}) = 0\\\\ The \ roots \ of \ the \ equation \ are;\\\\5x = 0, \ x = \dfrac{0}{5}, \ x =0\\\\\\[/tex]

                    [tex]\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2x} = 0, \sqrt{2}x = \sqrt{3}, \ x = \dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{\sqrt{2} }\\\\ \sqrt{3} +\sqrt{2x} = 0, \sqrt{2}x = -\sqrt{3}, \ x =- \dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

Hence, The roots of the equation are [tex]0 , \ \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2} }, \dfrac{-\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2} }[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given z 1 = 3(cos 37° + i sin 37°)

          z 2 = (cos 53° + i sin 53°)

by using complex numbers

      [tex]Z_{1} = r_{1} ( cos\alpha_{1} + isin\alpha_{1} ) = r_{1} cis\alpha _{1}[/tex]

step(ii):-

now

   [tex]Z_{1} Z_{2} = r_{1} r_{2} cis (\alpha _{1} + \alpha _{2})[/tex]

       z ₁ = 3(cos 37° + i sin 37°) = 3 c i s 37°

       z ₂ = (cos 53° + i sin 53°) = c i s 53°

we will use formula

Adding these together you get 71. To find the remaining votes that Francisco received you would..

Subtract

100 - 71 = 29%

Therefor, your answer is A.

If Darell earned 25% of the vote and Francisco received the remaining votes, Chelsea would have garnered 0.26 percent of the vote. 29% of the votes were cast in favor of Francisco. Option A is correct.

What is the percentage?

It's the ratio of two integers stated as a fraction of a hundred parts. It is a metric for comparing two sets of data, and it is expressed as a percentage using the percent symbol.

Given that there were four candidates running for office in the school election, Bianca won 1/5 of the vote, Chelsea got 0.26, Darell got 25%, and Francisco got the remaining votes.

Bianca's 1/5 would be converted to 20% and Chelsea's .26 would be 26%, Darnell's is 25%

Adding these together you get 71. To find the remaining votes that Francisco received you would be applying the subtraction operations,

100 - 71 = 29%

Thus, if Darell earned 25% of the vote and Francisco received the remaining votes, Chelsea would have garnered 0.26 percent of the vote. 29% of the votes were cast in favor of Francisco. Option A is correct.
