The height of the Statue of Liberty is 305 feet. Nicole, who is standing next to the statue, casts a 6-foot shadow. She is 5 feet tall. How long should the shadow of the statue be?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Create a proportion.

[tex]\frac{5}{6} = \frac{305}{x}\\[/tex]

This proportion is saying,

"If 5 corresponds to 6, then 305 corresponds to what?"

Cross multiply.

5x = 305(6)

5x = 1830

x = 1830 / 5

x = 366

So, the shadow of the statue should be 366 feet.

Answers

Answer: 22

Step-by-step explanation:

(7x+5) + (3x-5) + 90 = 180

10x + 90 =180

        -90   -90

10x          =90

_               _

10             10

x = 9  

3(9)-5

27-5

22

Answer:

To find the missing angles of the triangle we must first make an equation using what we know. A triangles sum is equal to 180 degrees, and a box indicator represents a 90 degree angle. With that we do this,

(7x+5)+(3x-5)+90=180
7x+5+3x-5+90=180
7x+3x+90=180
10x+90=180
10x=180-90
10x=90
10x/10=90/10
x=9

Now we find each individual missing angle,

(3x-5)
3(9)-5
27-5
22 degrees

(7x+5)
7(9)+5
63+5
68 degrees

Check to make sure it equals 180 degrees

22+68+90=180

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find slope, subtract the y's and x's in the same order. We put y's on the top and x's on the bottom. The points are (-3, -4) and (-2, -8).

The y's are -4 and -8. The x's are -3 and -2.

-4-(-8)=4

C. F^1(x) = x+8/5
D. F^1(x)= x+5/8

Answers

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

For an inverse function you take f(x) and turn that to y then you switch x and y. So you should start off with y= 5x -8. so then you switch x and y so x= 5y - 8. So then you solve. You subtract 8 from both sides and divide by 5 and you get F(x) inverse = x + 8/5

Clare knows that Priya has a bunch of nickels and dimes in her pocket and 2 points

that the total amount is $1.25. Write an equation that describes the

relationship between the number of dimes and the number of nickels in

Priya's pocket. Let x represent the number of nickels and y represent the

number of dimes.

Answers

Answer:

5x + 10y = 125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Number of nickel = x

Number of dime = y

Nickel = 5 cent

Dime = 10 cent

Total value = $1.25

Total value should be converted to cent since both dime and nickel are both in cent

= $1.25 * 100 = 125 cents

Therefore,

5x + 10y = 125 cents

True

False

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

22.75/6 boxes is $3.79 per box

30/8 boxes is $3.75 a box

38/10 boxes is $3.80 a box

68/18=3.70 a box if you combine the last two.

So no, the 6 boxes at $3.79 a box is not a better buy.
