A pole that is 3.1 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.57 m long. At the same time, a nearby tower casts a shadow that id 50.5 m long. How tall is the tower? Round your answer to the nearest meter.​

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

an object and its shadow create a right-angled triangle.

2 objects and their shadows at the same time create therefore two similar right-angled triangular

triangles.

that means the angles are the same, and each side length of one triangle correlates to the corresponding side length of the other triangle by the same factor.

so, when we know the factor of one pair of sides, we can calculate the lengths of the others by using the same factor.

therefore,

1.57 × f = 50.5

f = 50.5 / 1.57 = 32.1656051...

the height of the tower is then

3.1 × f = 3.1 × 32.1656051... = 99.7133758... m ≈ 100 m

Find the inequality represented by the graph.

Answers

Answer:

y ≤ -1/3x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

find the slope and y-intercept and write equation in form of

y = mx + b;  m = slope and b = y-intercept

if you start at (0,1) and move down and to the right to (3,0) you get a slope equal to -1/3

we can see by looking at the graph that the y-intercept is 1

therefore, y ≤ -1/3x + 1

Factor 26r3s 52r5 â€"" 39r2s4. What is the resulting expression? 13(2r3s 4r5 â€"" 3r2s4) 13r2s(2r 4r3 â€"" 3s3) 13r2(2rs 4r3 â€"" 3s4) 13r2(26r3s 52r5 â€"" 39r2s4).

Answers

The resulting expression from the factorization of 26r³s + 52r^(5) - 39r²s⁴ is; 13r²(2rs + 4r³ - 3s⁴)

We want to factor the algebraic expression;

26r³s + 52r^(5) - 39r²s⁴

Now, we need to first find the highest common factor here and factorize out.

First of all for the letters;

The highest common factor of the letters is r²

Factors of 26 = 1, 2, 13, 26

Factors of 39 = 1, 3, 13, 39

Factors of 52 = 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52

The highest common factor for the 3 numbers is 13.

Thus,in total, the highest common factor for the algebraic expression is 13r².

Finally, we have;

13r²(2rs + 4r³ - 3s⁴)

What is the equation of this graphed line?
Enter your answer in slope-intercept form in the box.

Answers

Answer:

y = -1/3x - 5

Introduction:

The slope intercept form of a line is y = mx + b. Now, let's start out by solving the slope.

Step-by step explanation:

=> Slope = rise/run = [tex]\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]=> Slope = [tex]\frac{-3- (-7) }{-6-6 }[/tex]=> Slope = [tex]\frac{4}{-12}[/tex]=> Slope = [tex]\frac{-1}{3}[/tex]

Since we have found the slope, let's find the y-intercept to create our equation.

=> y-intercept = -5

Conclusion:

Therefore, our new equation is y = -1/3x - 5

suppose+the+population+of+a+small+town+is+16000+and+growing+exponentially+at+2.2+%.+how+many+years+until+the+population+reaches+25000?

Answers

Answer:

  20.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The population is given by the exponential function ...

  p = 16000·(1 +0.022)^t

When p = 25000, we can find the value of t by taking logarithms.

  log(25000/16000) = t·log(1.022) . . . . . divide by 16000, take the log

  t = log(25/16)/log(1.022) ≈ 20.5 . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

It will take about 20.5 years for the population to reach 25000.
