The statue of liberty casts a 122 foot shadow at the same time ryan casts a 2 foot shadow. If the statue of liberty is 305 feet tall how tall is ryan?

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2 objects and their shadows create 2 similar right-angled triangles.

that means all angles are the same, and the side lengths of one triangle correlate to the corresponding side lengths of the other triangle via the same factor.

so,

122 × f = 2

f = 2/122 = 1/61

therefore, Ryan is

305 × f = 305 × 1/61 = 5 ft

tall.

Answer 2

If the Statue of Liberty is 305 feet tall, Ryan is 5 feet tall.

What is proportion?

A mathematical comparison of two numbers is called a proportion. According to proportion, two sets of provided numbers are said to be directly proportional to one another if they increase or decrease in the same ratio.

Given that,

The length of shadow of Statue of Liberty = 122 foot.

The length of shadow of Ryan = 2 foot.

Also, the height of Statue of Liberty = 305 feet.

Let the height of Ryan = x

To find the value of x,

Use ratio and proportion method,

122 / 305 = 2 / x

x = 2 x 305 / 122

x = 305 / 61

x = 5

The height of Ryan is 5 feet.

The Greatest Common Factor of 35 and 63 is 7; both 35 and 63 are evenly divided by 7.  Thus, 35 + 63 can be rewritten as 7(5) + 7(9), or 7(14)

Answers

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price = x

Sale = 20% off

20% / 100 = 0.2 to convert from a percent to a decimal

Sale = x - 20% of x = x - 0.2x = 0.8x

Sale price = y = 0.8x

Reduction of sale prices = 25% = 0.25

Reduction = y - 25% of y = y - 0.25y = 0.75y

End price in terms of original price (x):

0.75y = 0.75(0.8)x

          = 0.6x

End price = 0.6 or 60% of original price, coming out to a 100-60 = 40% overall percentage reduction

Explanation of approximation, decimal place, significant figure

Answers

Answer:

im not an expert in math but i'll do my best:

1. an approximation is something that is almost, but not exactly something. for example, 5.02 is approximately 5. it's not EXACTLY 5, but it's around 5.

2. decimal place refers to the position of numbers after the decimal point. let's take the decimal number 7.89 for example. there are 2 numbers after the decimal point, which is 8 and 9. hence we say that 7.89 has 2 decimal places.

3. significant figure is kind of hard to explain, so i'll jump into the example straight away.

5.874 to 3 significant figures is 5.87. what i did was count 3 digits: starting from 5 to 7. to round to 3 significant figures, i look at the 4th digit, which is 4 in this case. if it's smaller than 5, i ignore everything past the digit 7, and leave the final answer as 5.87.

if the 4th digit is greater than or equal to 5, i add 1 to the 3rd digit THEN leave out all the numbers after the 3rd digit. (if this were the case, the answer would be 5.88)

lets take a trickier example, 0.064591

in this case i cannot start counting 3 digits starting from 0. i have to count starting from the number 6. the concept in this case is that the 1st significant figure cannot be a 0. in this case the answer to 3 significant figures would be 0.0646.

however, 0 can be a significant figure if it's after another number. for instance 0.90672

the 0 after the 9 would count as a significant figure because it's not the 1st significant figure in the number. however the 0 before the 9 would NOT count as one because 0 cannot be the 1st significant figure. the answer to 3 significant figures would be 0.907.

sorry this was so lengthy, i just hope this answers your question on what these are and how they work. good luck!

Carryonlearing

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The only one that has a chance of being correct is D. That's because the first term is correct and you have to assume that the second one is as well.

cubrt(512) = 8

The first term is (n + 8)

The second term is (n^2 - 8*n + 8^2) = n^2 - 8n + 64

All the other answers have the wrong first term

A: it should be n + 8 not n - 8

B and C are both wrong because the cube root of 512 is 8 not 4.

It is also the women's work to see to the planting. (This was in olden times.)After the best seed has been selected, the planter measures the corn, lays down a layer of hay, then a layer of corn. Over this corn they sprinkle warm water and cover it with another layer of hay, then bind hay about the bundle and hang it up in a spot where the warm rays of the sun can strike it.
