Suzi is 1.7 meters tall. At 2:00 pm, Suzi measures her shadow to be 0.3 meters long. At the same time, a nearby tree casts a shadow that is 2.4 meters long. How tall is the tree?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

13.6 meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Suzi's height, p1 = 1.7 m

Suzi's shadow, p2 = 0.3 m

Tree shadow, t2 = 2.4 m

Tree height, t1 =?

Using the relation :

p1 / p2 = t1 / t2

1.7 / 0.3 = t1 / 2.4

Cross multiply :

1.7 * 2.4 = 0.3 * t1

4.08 = 0.3t1

t1 = 4.08 / 0.3

t1 = 13.6

Height of the tree is 13.6 m

Consider this system of equations. Which shows the second equation written in slope-intercept form? y = 3 x minus 2. 10 (x + three-fifths) = 2 y y = 5 x + StartFraction 3 Over 10 EndFraction

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = 5x + 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y = 3x - 2[/tex]

[tex]10(x + \frac{3}{5}) = 2y[/tex]

Required

The second equation in slope intercept form

We have:

[tex]10(x + \frac{3}{5}) = 2y[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]5(x + \frac{3}{5}) = y[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]5x + 3 = y[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]y = 5x + 3[/tex]

Hence, the equation in slope intercept form is: [tex]y = 5x + 3[/tex]

In AABC, point D is the centroid, and AD= 12. Find AG

Answers

Answer:

AG = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship of the segments created is one is 1/3 (shorter) and the other (longer) is 2/3 of the total length.

Lets make x represent AG.

So, 2/3 of x is 12

or

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]x = 12

Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] , which is [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex].

( [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]) [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]x = 12 ([tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex])  (x is left alone, the fractions = 1 when multiplied)

x = 12 ([tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex])         ( 12 times 3 = 36, divided by 2 = 18)    

x = 18

If AVB has a measure of 88° and VM is its angle bisector, what is the
measure of AVM?

A. 88°
B. 22°
C. 176°
D. 44

Answers

Answer:

B. 22°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle bisector divides an angle into two equal angles.

Angle AVM = Angle MVM = Angle AVB / 2

Angle AVM = Angle AVB / 2

Angle AVM = 88 / 4

Angle AVM = 22°

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]{ \boxed{ \tt{m \angle1 = m \angle5}}} \\ { \tt{m \angle1 = 180 \degree - m \angle6}} \\ { \tt{m \angle1 = 180 \degree - 123.5 \degree}} \\ { \bf{m \angle1 = 56.5 \degree}}[/tex]

When a pair of parallel lines is intersected by a transversal, then

Corresponding angles are equal.

∠2 and ∠6 are corresponding angles.

So, m∠2 = m∠6

=> m∠2 = 123.5°

We know that linear pair of angles are supplementary (180°).

∠1 and ∠2 are linear pair of angles.

So, m∠1 + m∠2 = 180°

=> m∠1 + 123.5° = 180°

=> m∠1 = 180° - 123.5°

=> m∠1 = 56.5°

The length of the shortest side of the triangle is 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the shortest side of the isosceles triangle and b be the two congruent sides.

The congruent sides b are each one unit longer than the shortest side. Hence:

[tex]b=a+1[/tex]

The perimeter of the isosceles triangle is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle P_{\Delta}=b+b+a=2b+a[/tex]

This is equivalent to the perimeter of a square whose side lengths are two units shorter than the shortest side of the triangle. Let the side length of the square be s. Hence:

[tex]s=a-2[/tex]

The perimeter of the square is:

[tex]\displaystyle P_{\text{square}}=4s=4(a-2)[/tex]

Since the two perimeters are equivalent:

[tex]2b+a=4(a-2)[/tex]

Substitute for b:

[tex]2(a+1)+a=4(a-2)[/tex]

Solve for a. Distribute:

[tex]2a+2+a=4a-8[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]3a+2=4a-8[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]a=10[/tex]

The length of the shortest side of the triangle is 10 units.

Answers

Answer:

(3)11

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

[tex](x^2-12x+35)(x^2+10x+24)=504[/tex]

We have to find the sum of positive roots of the equation.

[tex]x^2(x^2+10x+24)-12x(x^2+10x+24)+35(x^2+10x+24)=504[/tex]

[tex]x^4+10x^3+24x^2-12x^3-120x^2-288x+35x^2+350x+840=504[/tex]

[tex]x^4-2x^3-61x^2+62x+840-504=0[/tex]

[tex]x^4-2x^3-61x^2+62x+336=0[/tex]

Factor of 336

2,3,4,6,8,7,

Let x=2

[tex]2^4-2^4-61(2^2)+62(2)+336\neq0[/tex]

x=2 is not the root of equation

x=-2

[tex](-2)^4-2(-2)^3-61(-2)^2+62(-2)+336=0[/tex]

Hence x=-2 is the root of equation.

x+2 is a factor of equation.

x=3

[tex]3^4-2(3^3)-61(3^2)+62(3)+336=0[/tex]

Therefore, x=3  is the root of equation.

[tex](x+2)(x-3)(x^2-x-56)=0[/tex]

[tex](x+2)(x-3)(x^2-8x+7x-56)=0[/tex]

[tex](x+2)(x-3)(x(x-8)+7(x-8))=0[/tex]

[tex](x+2)(x-3)(x-8)(x+7)=0[/tex]

[tex]x-8=0\implies x=8[/tex]

[tex]x+7=0\implies x=-7[/tex]

Positive roots are 3 and 8

Sum of positive roots=3+8=11
