5. INDIRECT MEASUREMENT A lighthouse casts a 128-foot shadow. A nearby lamppost that
measures 5.25 feet casts an 8-foot shadow.
Write a proportion that can be used to determine the height of the lighthouse. What is the height of the lighthouse?
MGSE9-12.G.SRT 5
b. 5.25
a. 1285.25; 195 ft
X 128
8 ; 84 ft
128
c. 5.25" 8 ; 672 ft
X 128
d. 3 5.25; 195 ft
Using proportions, it is found that the height of the lighthouse is of 84 ft.
This question is solved by proportions, using a rule of three.For a height of 5.25 feet, the shadow is of 8 feet. What is the height when the shadow is of 128 feet?The rule of three is:
5.25 feet - 8 feet
x feet - 128 feet
Applying cross multiplication:
[tex]8x = 5.25(128)[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{5.25(128)}{8}[/tex]
[tex]x = 84[/tex]
The height of the lighthouse is of 84 ft.

hiroshi borrowed 3 nonfiction books from the library. This was 25% of the books he checked out. how many books did Hiroshi take out?
Answer:
12 books
Step-by-step explanation:
25% is the same as 1/4
3=25%=1/4
if you multiply 3 by 4 you get 100% or 12
You can also do this by adding 9, aka 3*3, to 3 to get 3*4=12.
grace read 4 days a this week. She reads 10 minutes each day. if her teacher wants her to read a total of 60 minutes, how many more minutes does grace need to still read?
Answer: 20 more minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Grace has already read 40 minutes due to her reading 4 times a week and 10 minutes each time(4x10=40). She has 20 more minutes to read as there as 60 minutes in a hour
Grace needs 20 minutes more to read.
What is Unitary Method?The unitary technique involves first determining the value of a single unit, followed by the value of the necessary number of units.
For example, Let's say Ram spends 36 Rs. for a dozen (12) bananas.
12 bananas will set you back 36 Rs. 1 banana costs 36 x 12 = 3 Rupees.
As a result, one banana costs three rupees. Let's say we need to calculate the price of 15 bananas.
This may be done as follows: 15 bananas cost 3 rupees each; 15 units cost 45 rupees.
Given:
Grace read 4 days a this week.
In one day she read= 10 minutes
So, in 4 days she read = 4 x 10
= 40 minutes.
So, total time taken = 60 minutes.
Thus, she needs to read (60 - 40) = 20 minutes.

what is the answer too 2y-3=-5
2 − 3 = −5
First we need to Add 3 to both sides of the equation:
2 − 3 + 3 = −5 + 3
Then we simplify:
2 = −5 + 3
2 = −2
Now we divide both sides of the equation by the same term:
2 / 2 = −2 / 2
Final answer: = −1
I hope this helps!
Answer:
Y= - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
2y-3= - 5
+3 +3
2y= -2
/2 /2
Y= -1
Step 1: Add 3 to both sides because you want to cancel out the 3 so you do the opposite of what is say's. For example, if it says 2y-3 add 3 or 2y+3 subtract 3 from both sides.
Step 2: Add 3 to -5 which would be -2
Step 3: Since you're "multiplying" Y to 2 you're going to divide 2 to get Y by itself. So 2/2 cancels out and now you're left with y
Step 4: Divide 2 form -2 and you get -1
Let me know if you have any questions and I hope this helps

A parallelogram is a type of quadrilateral that has its opposite sides to be equal and parallel. The sum of its internal angles is [tex]360^{o}[/tex].
To prove that ∠ BAD ≅ ∠ DCB, we have:

solve x-2y=12 if the domain is {-3,-1,0,2,5}
Answer:
x-2y=12
Solve for y
x-2y=12
Subtract x on both sides
-2y=-x + 12
Divide both sides by -2
y=\frac{1}{2}x - 6y=21x−6
the domain is {-3,-1,0,2,5}
Domain are the set of x values
Range are the set of y values
We are given with domain x, we need to find out y values using the equation y=\frac{1}{2}x - 6y=21x−6
when x=-3 , y=\frac{1}{2}(-3)-6=\frac{-15}{2}=-7.5y=21(−3)−6=2−15=−7.5
when x=-1 , y=\frac{1}{2}(-1)-6=\frac{-13}{2}=-6.5y=21(−1)−6=2−13=−6.5
when x=0 , y=\frac{1}{2}(0)-6=-6y=21(0)−6=−6
when x=2 , y=\frac{1}{2}(2)-6=-5y=21(2)−6=−5
when x=5 , y=\frac{1}{2}(5)-6=\frac{-7}{2}=-3.5y=21(5)−6=2−7=−3.5
Range is {-7.5, -6.5, -6 , -5, -3.5}
Step-by-step explanation:
solve the equation ? 1 equation with 2 variables ? that is not possible.
what you mean is probably find the range.
x - 2y = 12
-2y = -x + 12
2y = x - 12
y = (x - 12)/2 = (1/2)x - 6
x = -3
y = 1/2 × -3 - 6 = -1.5 - 6 = -7.5
x = -1
y = 1/2 × -1 - 6 = -0.5 - 6 = -6.5
x = 0
y = 1/2 × 0 - 6 = -6
x = 2
y = 1/2 × 2 - 6 = 1 - 6 = -5
x = 5
y = 1/2 × 5 - 6 = 2.5 - 6 = -3.5
so, the corresponding range of the function is
{-7.5, -6.5, -6, -5, -3.5}

21. Paul has $900 to invest in a savings account that has an annual interest rate of 1.8%, and a money market account that pays 4.2% per year. Write a polynomial for the interest he will earn in one year if he invests x dollars in the savings account.
The polynomial that gives the interest earned after a year will have variables, exponents and constants that are joined by operators.
The interest earned after one year is 0.018·xReasons:
The amount Paul has to invest = $900
The annual interest rate from the savings account = 1.8%
The amount the money market account pays per year = 4.2 %
Required: The polynomial for the interest Paul earned by investing x dollars in the savings account.
Solution:
The interest earned is found using the compound interest formula as follows;
[tex]\displaystyle A = \mathbf{P \cdot \left(1 + \frac{r}{n} \right)^{n \cdot t}}[/tex]
Where;
A = The amount in the account after one year
P = The original amount invested = x
r = The interest rate offered on the investment = 1.8% = 0.018
t = The time of the investment = 1 year
n = The number of times of application of the interest per period = Once per year
Which gives;
Interest = Amount earned = A - P
Therefore;
[tex]\displaystyle Interest, \ I = \mathbf{P \cdot \left(1 + \frac{r}{n} \right)^{n \cdot t} - P}[/tex]
Plugging in the values gives;
[tex]\displaystyle I = x \cdot \left(1 + \frac{0.018}{1} \right)^{1 \times 1} - x = x \cdot 1.018^1 - x = 1.018 \cdot x - x = 0.018 \cdot x[/tex]
The polynomial equation is therefore;
Interest, I = 0.018·x
Using the simple interest formula, we have;
[tex]\displaystyle Interest = \mathbf{\frac{P \times r \times t}{100}}[/tex]
Which gives;
[tex]\displaystyle Interest = \frac{x \times 1.8 \times 1}{100} = 0.018 \cdot x[/tex]
Interest earned by investing in the savings account for one year, I = 0.018·x
The polynomial representing the interest earned is I = 0.018·xLearn more here:

Deductions for federal tax, state tax, and city tax
Deduction for F.I.C.A. or social security tax
Deduction of $117 for medical and dental insurance.
What would Jason’s net monthly income and net annual salary be after taxes and insurance?
Answer:
Gross Pay for 1 paycheck
Deductions for federal tax, state tax, and city tax hope it helps :)
Step-by-step explanation:
The net monthly income of Jason is $194.68 and the net annual salary is 23324.16.
What is gross pay?Gross pay of an employee is basically sum of his basic pay, dearness allowance, any other allowance only. Public providend fund, income tax are not deducted from it.
How to find net pay?1) Gross paycheck=2*40*25.5=$2040.
2) Federal tax=2040*21%=$428.4
3) State tax=25=$25
4) City tax=2040*12%=$244.8.
5) Deductions=2040*12.45=$252.96.
6) Net monthly income=2*(Gross pay-federal tax-state tax-city tax-deductions-deductions for F.IC.A. or social security tax)
=2*[2040-428.4-25-244.8-252.96-117]
=1943.68
7) Net annual salary=12* net monthly income.
=1943.68*12 ( 1year= 12 months)
=$23324.16
Hence the net monthly income of Jason is $194.68 and the net annual salary is 23324.16.
