A lumber mill needs one more tree cut down that is at least 29 feet long. The person cutting down the tree is 6 feet 2 inches tall. Using shadows to determine whether a tree is tall enough, the person stands next to the tree and measures the length of his shadow as 32 inches. What is the length (to the nearest tenth of a foot) of the tree’s shadow that will allow the tree to be cut down?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

create a proportion 72/348 = 32/x

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 1682

1682 ÷ 12 = 140.1

Answer 2

The length of the tree’s shadow that will allow the tree to be cut down will be 150.5 inches.

What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is an ordered set of integers a and b expressed as a/b, with b never equaling 0. A proportional is a mathematical expression in which two things are equal.

A lumber mill needs one more tree cut down that is at least 29 feet long. The person cutting down the tree is 6 feet 2 inches tall.

            29 feet = 348 inches

6 feet 2 inches = 74 inches

Using shadows to determine whether a tree is tall enough, the person stands next to the tree and measures the length of his shadow as 32 inches.

Then the length of the tree’s shadow that will allow the tree to be cut down will be

Let x be the tree’s shadow. Then we have

x / 348 = 32 / 74

x = 150.486

x ≅ 150.5 inches

An athlete covers three consecutive miles by walking the first mile, running the second mile

and cycling the third. He runs twice as fast as he walks, and he cycles one and a half times as

ast as he runs. He takes ten minutes longer than he would do if he cycled the three miles,

How long does he take by walking, running and cycling?

ter your math answer

Answers

Answer:

Total time taken by walking, running and cycling = 22 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of walking = x

As given,

The distance of walking = 1

Now,

As [tex]Time = \frac{Distance }{Speed}[/tex]

⇒ Time traveled by walking = [tex]\frac{1}{x}[/tex]

Now,

Given that - He runs twice as fast as he walks

⇒Speed of running = 2x

Also given distance traveled by running = 1

Time traveled by running = [tex]\frac{1}{2x}[/tex]

Now,

Given that - he cycles one and a half times as  fast as he runs.

⇒Speed of cycling =  [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] (2x) = 3x

Also given distance traveled by cycling = 1

Time traveled by cycling = [tex]\frac{1}{3x}[/tex]

Now,

Total time traveled = Time traveled by walking + running + cycling

                                = [tex]\frac{1}{x}[/tex] +  [tex]\frac{1}{2x}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{3x}[/tex]

                                = [tex]\frac{6+3+2}{6x} = \frac{11}{6x}[/tex]

If he cycled the three mile , then total time taken = [tex]\frac{1}{3x}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{3x}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{1}{3x}[/tex] = x

Given,

He takes ten minutes longer than he would do if he cycled the three miles

⇒x + 10 = [tex]\frac{11}{6} x[/tex]

⇒[tex]x - \frac{11}{6} x = -10[/tex]

⇒[tex]-\frac{5}{6}x = -10[/tex]

⇒x = [tex]\frac{60}{5}[/tex] = 12

⇒x = 12

∴ we get

Total time traveled by walking + running + cycling = [tex]\frac{11}{6} x = \frac{11}{6} (12) = 11 (2) = 22[/tex] min

The third side of the right triangle is 10.72 unit.

What is Pythagoras theorem?

Pythagoras' Theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse side in a right-angled triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Given, the side of right triangle is;

Let H be hypotenuse = 14

And P be perpendicular = 9

Then to find third side base be B,

we use the Pythagoras theorem;

(H)² = (P)²+(B)²

Rearranging,

(B)² = (H)² - (P)²

(B)² = (14)² - (9)²

(B)² = 196 - 81

(B)² = 115

B = 10.72 unit.

Therefore, the third side is 10.72 unit.
