a parking meter that is 1.6m tall costs a shadow of 3.6m long. at the same time, a tree costs a shadow 9m long. which proportion could be used to fin the height of the tree?

Answers

Answer 1

well, 1.6m:3.6m, so then for 9m, we would divide 1.6 by 3.6, which is 0.444444... So, we multiply 9 by 0.444444, which is 3.9999996. We can round this to 4, so 9m:4m. The 9m tall tree casts a shadow of 4m.

Answer 2

The tree casting a shadow of 9 meters is actually 20.25 meters in height.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

The relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

The information's given that a parking meter that is 1.6m tall costs a shadow of 3.6m long. at the same time, a tree costs a shadow 9m long.

The height of the sign that casts a shadow of 1.6 meters is = 3.6

Then the height of the tree that casts a shadow of 9 meters

= (3.6/1.6) x 9 meters

= 20.25 meters

Therefore, the height is actually 20.25 meters.

17 quarts of soil are used to completely fill 4 flower pots. If each pot holds the same amount of soil, how many quarts will each pot hold

Answers

Given:

17 quarts of soil are used to completely fill 4 flower pots.

To find:

The number of quarts hold by each pot if each pot holds the same amount of soil.

Solution:

Let [tex]x[/tex] be the number of quarts hold by each pot.

Total number of quarts hold by 4 flower pots = [tex]4x[/tex]

It is given that, 17 quarts of soil are used to completely fill 4 flower pots.

[tex]4x=17[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{17}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=4.25[/tex]

Therefore, the each pot holds 4.25 quarts of soil.

Solve the equation and enter the value of x.

X = ?

Answers

11x + (-4x) =56
7x=56
x=8

Answer:

[tex] \sf \: x = 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation,

→ 11x + (-4x) = 56

Now the value of x will be,

→ 11x + (-4x) = 56

→ 11x - 4x = 56

→ 7x = 56

→ x = 56/7

→ [ x = 8 ]

Hence, the value of x is 8.

Answers

Answer:

x = 3√2 , y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In given triangle,

3√2 = x

and y is hypotenuse.

Using Pythagoras theorem

hypotenuse = √Perpendicular² + Base²

hypotenuse = √(3√2)² + (3√2)²

hypotenuse = √18 + 18

hypotenuse = √36

hypotenuse = 6

So,

x = 3√2 , y = 6

What’s the volume of the prism ?

Answers

Answer:

63[tex]cm^{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of this prism, all you need to do is multiply the height, the width, and the length of the prism. The height is 3, the length is 7, and the width is 3. So 3·3·7=9·7=63. Now we have to add the label, which is cm. We are multiplying 3cm by 3cm by 7cm, which makes it  [tex]cm^{3}[/tex]. Now you just multiply [tex]cm^{3}[/tex] and 63 together, which gets you 63[tex]cm^{3}[/tex].
