In the later afternoon on a sunny day, Shanice goes outside with a tape measure. She first measures her shadow which is 7 feet 6 inches long. She then measures the shadow of the oak tree in the back yard which is a whopping 74 feet 3 inches. Not content to stop there, she also measures the shadow of her house (taking the longest measurement possible) and finds that it is 28 feet 6 inches. Using this information, find out how much taller the tree is than the house if Shanice's actual height is 5 feet 10 inches.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

29 feets 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to obtain the actual height of oak tree :

Converting measurement to inches :.

1 Feet = 12 inches

Shanice height, SA = 5ft 10 in = (12*5 + 10) = 70 in

Shanice shadow, SS = 7ft 6in = (12*7 + 6) = 90 in

Tree shadow, TS = 74ft 3 in =(12*74 + 3) = 891 in

Let actual tree height = TH

Using the relation :

SA / SS = TH / TS

70 / 90 = TH / 891

Cross multiply :

90 * TH = 891 * 70

TH = (891 * 70) / 90

TH = 693 inches

Height of house = 28ft 6 in = (28*12 + 6) = 342 in

Height difference :

(693 - 342) in = 351 inches

351 in / 12 = 29 feets 3 inches

Answers

Answer:

volume left in A is 80ml

Step-by-step explanation:

let original volume in both be x ml

after pouring from A to B

vol in A = x - 120

vol in B = x + 120

now it is given that

vol in B = 4 times vol in A

implies

[tex]x + 120 = 4 \times (x - 120) \\ x + 120 = 4x - 480 \\ 3x = 600 \\ x = 200[/tex]

hence original volume in A is 200ml. after pouring in B it is 200-120 = 80 ml

The hire purchase price of a fridge is 16400. 25% is paid as deposit, the rest is spread over 12 equally monthly instalments. If the cash price is 20% less the hire purchase pries, (a) find the costs price of the fridge (b) calculate the deposit (c) what is the monthly installments (d) what is the differences between the cash price and the hire purchase prie

Answers

Answer: a. 13120

b. 4100

c. 1025

d. 3280

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) find the costs price of the fridge

Since the cash price is 20% less the hire purchase price, then the cost of the fridge will be:

= (100% - 20%) × 16400

= 80% × 16400

= 0.8 × 16400

= 13120

(b) calculate the deposit

Since 25% is paid as deposit, the deposit will be:

= 25% × 16400

= 0.25 × 16400

= 4100

(c) what is the monthly installments

Monthly installments will be:

= (16400 - 4100)/12

= 12300/12

= 1025

(d) what is the differences between the cash price and the hire purchase price.

This will be:

Hire purchase price = 16400

Cash price = 13120

= 16400 - 13120

= 3280

Point O is the center of dilation. Triangle D E F is dilated to create smaller triangle D prime E prime F prime. The length of O F prime is 3. The length of F prime F is 7. What is the scale factor of the dilation of triangle DEF?

Answers

Answer:  3/13

===============================================

Work Shown:

k = scale factor

k = (OF ')/(OF)

k = (OF ')/(OF ' + F ' F)

k = (3)/(3 + 10)

k = 3/13

The scale factor of the dilation of triangle DEF is 3/10.

What is Dilation?

The technique of dilation is used to enlarge or reduce the size of the things. This transformation produces an image that resembles the original shape and is identical to the image.

We have a triangle DEF is dilated to smaller triangle D'E'F' .

As, the length of OF' =  3 and F'F = 7.

So, the scale factor of dilation is

OF' / OF = 3 / 10.

Thus, the scale factor is 3/10.

Jacqui likes to travel to the beach on weekends. She starts at her house, drives d miles, and then spends t hours walking the remaining w miles to get to the beach. Jacqui drives three times as long as she walks during the trip. The equation below represents Jacqui's average speed, a, in miles per hour, when traveling to the beach. a=d+w/3t+t What is the meaning of 3t + t3t+t in the equation above? -The total time that Jacqui spends traveling to the beach -The time that Jacqui spends driving to the beach -The total distance that Jacqui travels to the beach -Jacqui's maximum speed during her trip Jacqui's average speed during one trip to the beach was 3636 miles per hour. If Jacqui drove 70 miles and the entire trip to the beach took her 22 hours, how many miles did she walk to get to the beach?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Average speed is the ratio of the total distance travelled to the total time taken. Hence it is given by:

Average speed = total distance / total time

Total distance = d miles + w miles

Jacqui drives three times as long as she walks during the trip, hence:

time spent driving = 3t

Total time = 3t + t

Average speed = total distance / total time

a = (d + w) / (3t + t)

2) (3t + t) represents the total time that Jacqui spends traveling to the beach.

3) Given that a = 36 miles per hour, total time = 2 hours

a = total distance / total time

36 miles per hour = total distance / 2 hours

total distance = 72 miles

Total distance = distance walk + distance drove

72 = distance walk + 70

Distance walk = 2 miles

(please help, it’s urgent) :)

Answers

Answer:

id say a

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of interest his account should earn after 15 years is:

$7, 915.64.

Here, we have,

Compound interest is when you earn interest on both the money you've saved and the interest you earn.

Formula:

A = P(1 + {r}/{n})^{n.t}

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

n = number of times interest applied per time period

t = number of time periods elapsed

Here, given that, P =$4,500 , r= 7%, t=15yr , n=365days

Let, A= x

Now, x =$4,500(1+7/100×365)^(365×15)

     x=$12415.64

i.e.  final amount = $12415.64

so,  the amount of interest his account should earn after 15 years is:

$12415.64 - 4500 = $7, 915.64

Hence, the amount of interest his account should earn after 15 years is: $7, 915.64

According to the distributive property of multiplication over addition, if a, b, c are real values, then

[tex]a(b+c)=ab+ac[/tex]

We have,
