A man who is 6 feet tall casts a shadow that is 11 feet long. At the same time, a tree casts a shadow that is 33 feet long. What is the height of the tree?

Answers

Answer 1

Set up a proportion:

6 feet over 11 feet long equals x feet over 33 feet long

6/11 = x/33

198 = 11x

x = 18

The height of the tree is 18 feet tall

Answer 2

The height of the tree will be 18 feet.

What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is an ordered set of integers a and b expressed as a/b, with b never equaling 0. A proportional is a mathematical expression in which two things are equal.

A man who is 6 feet tall casts a shadow that is 11 feet long.

At the same time, a tree casts a shadow that is 33 feet long.

Then the height of the tree will be

Let x be the height of the tree.

Then we have

x / 6 = 33 / 11

    x = 3 x 6

    x = 18 feet

Six more than three times a number is less than or equal to 96. d. Five less then half the distance from Jerod’ s home to the mall is more then 6 miles

Answers

First statement : Six more than three times a number is less than or equal to 96.

Let us assume number be n.

We can repharse above statement as :

"6 more than 3 times of n is less than or equal to 96".

Therefore, we can write an ineuality as.

3 times of n = 3n

6 more than 3 times of n = 3n+6.

3n+6 ≤ 96.

_____________________________________________________________

Statement 2: Five less then half the distance from Jerod’ s home to the mall is more then 6 miles.

Let us distance from Jerod’ s home to the mall is d.

We can repharse above statement as:

5 less than 1/2 of d is more than 6 miles.

5 less than 1/2 of d = 1/2d -5 .

Therefore, we can write an ineuality as.

12d -5 > 6.


help me!!?! solving inequalities.

Answers

Answer:

You can watch 13 movies

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of Carl's Cable Company:

Monthly service = $55For 1 paper view movie = $4

Cost of Teleview Cable Company

Monthly service = $110

Lets take that you watch [tex]x[/tex] paper view movies per month.

Then the cost of paper view movies = $[tex]4*x[/tex]

Now we can calculate the total cost of cable TV if you watch [tex]x[/tex] paper view movies per month.

Total cost = Monthly service + Paper view movie cost

                 =[tex]55+4x[/tex]

Now we can write an inequality for the Cost of Car's Cable Company cost being less than Teleview as follows;

[tex]55+4x≤110[/tex]

Now we can solve this inequality and find [tex]x[/tex] the number of movies you can watch so that the Cost of Carl's cable company will be less than teleview.

[tex]55+4x≤110[/tex]

=[tex]4x≤110-55[/tex]

=[tex]4x≤55[/tex]

=[tex]x≤13.75[/tex]

Therefore, if you watch less than 13.75 movies per month the cost of Carl's cable company cost will be less than Teleview.

So you can watch 13 movies (Number of movies has to be a whole number)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

At the bank, Derek made 7 withdrawals, each in the same amount. His brother, John, made 5 withdrawals, each in the same amount. Each of John’s withdrawals was $5 more than each withdrawal that Derek made. Both Derek and John withdrew the same amount of money in the end. How much did each brother withdraw?
A) Write an equation. Let x represent the amount of one of Derek’s withdrawals. B) Solve the equation. Show your work.
C) Check your solution. Show your work. D) State the solution in complete sentences

Answers

Answer:

x=12.50

y = 17.50

Step-by-step explanation:

x = Amount of one Derek withdrawal

then amount of John withdrawal =x+5

Total withdrawals of Derek = no of times x one time withdrawal

= 7(x) = 7x ... i

No of John withdrawal = no of times x one time withdrawal

= 5(x+5)  ... ii

Given that i and ii are equal

i.e. 7x =5(x+5)

7x = 5x+25

2x =25

x = 12.50 dollars

Y = 17.50 dollars

Checking part:

total derek withdrawal = 7(12.5) =87.50

Joh's withdrawal = 5(17.50) = 87.50

Since both are equal, our answers are right.

Solution:  Derek withdrew each time 12.50 dollars each for 7 times and John withdrew 17.50 dollars each for 5 times.

Jose buys a bag of cookies that contains 6 chocolate chip cookies, 8 peanut butter cookies, 9 sugar cookies and 8 oatmeal cookies.

What is the probability that Jose reaches in the bag and randomly selects a peanut butter cookie from the bag, eats it, then reaches back in the bag and randomly selects a chocolate chip cookie?

Answers

approximately 5% of the time. In decmial form, it is 0.0516129032. If it is in fraction from, then it is 8/155. To explain, you find the total number of cookies. Then you find the number of peanut butter cookies and put that as the numerator over the total as the denominator. After that, you find the number of cookies left after Jose eats one cookie. That becomes the denominator and then find the amount of chocolate chip cookies ib the bag and put it over that total. Multiply both fractions together to get this answer.

Final answer:

The probability that Jose first selects a peanut butter cookie and then a chocolate chip cookie from a bag of 31 cookies is 8 out of 155.

Explanation:

This problem is a question of probability, which is a branch of Mathematics. Probability determines how likely an event is to occur out of the total number of possible outcomes. We'll calculate it step by step:

First, we calculate the total number of cookies. Jose has 6 chocolate chip cookies, 8 peanut butter cookies, 9 sugar cookies and 8 oatmeal cookies. We add all these up to get the total number of cookies, which is 31 cookies.Then, Jose first selects a peanut butter cookie. The probability of this happening is the number of peanut butter cookies (8) divided by the total number of cookies (31). We simplify this to 8/31.After eating the peanut butter cookie, the total number of cookies is now 30 and the number of chocolate chip cookies remains 6. Thus, the probability of selecting a chocolate chip cookie now is 6/30, which simplifies to 1/5.Now, we multiply the two probability values to get the overall probability: 8/31 * 1/5 = 8/155. So, the probability that Jose first selects a peanut butter cookie and then a chocolate chip cookie is 8 out of 155.

    Total                140               250                110             500

We are asked to find the probability that a person consumes 1500-2000 calories in a day.

Total number of people who were surveyed=500

Total number of people who consume 1500-2000 calories in a day are:250

              Hence, Probability is:

                250/500=1/2=0.50

Answer:  D. 0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for probability :

[tex]\text{Probability}=\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}[/tex]

The given two-way table :

  Total                    140               250                110                500

To find the probability that a person consumes 1500-2000 calories in a day., we need :

a) The total number of people surveyed.  (Total outcomes)

b)  The number of people consume 1500-2000 calories in a day. (favorable outcomes)

From the above table,

Total people surveyed=500

Number of people consume 1500-2000 calories in a day are=250

Then , the required probability will be :-

[tex]\text{P(person consumes 1,500 to 2,000 calories in a day)}=\dfrac{250}{500}=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\=0.50[/tex]

Hence, the probability that a person consumes 1,500 to 2,000 calories in a day=0.50

Two angles are complementary. The first angle is 2x degrees. The second angle is (x+30) degrees. Determine the larger angle

Answers

larger angle = 50°

complementary angles sum to 90° , hence

2x + x + 30 = 90

3x + 30 = 90 ( subtract 30 from both sides )

3x = 60 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 20

thus 2x = 2 × 20 = 40° and x + 30 = 20 + 30 = 50°

the larger angle is x + 30 = 50°

Answers

Rise over run, so 2/6. This can be simplified to 1/3. Hope this helps!

Answer:  The SLOPE of the graphed line is [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the slope of the graphed line in the figure.

From the graph, we note that

the line passes through the points (0, 2) and (6, 4).

We know that

the slope of a straight line passing through the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

[tex]m=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}.[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the graphed line is given by

[tex]m=\dfrac{4-2}{6-0}=\dfrac{2}{6}=\dfrac{1}{3}.[/tex]

Thus, the SLOPE of the graphed line is [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}.[/tex]

A car is traveling 75 kilometers per a
Hour.how many meters does the car travel in one minute?

Answers

One hour = 60 minutes

If it is travelling at 75 kilometers per hour, we can divide 75 by 60 to find out how fast it can travel in one minute.

75/60 = 1.25

The car can travel 1.25 kilometers per minute.

However, the questions is asking how many meters it travels in one minute.

A kilometer is 1000x the size of a meter.

Thus, if we multiply 1.25 by 1000x we'll get the amount of meters.

1.25 * 1000 = 1250

The car travels 1250 meters in one minute.

Final answer:

A car traveling at 75 km/h covers 1,250 meters in one minute by converting the speed to meters per hour and then dividing by the number of minutes in an hour.

Explanation:

To convert the car's speed from kilometers per hour to meters per minute, we can use the following conversion factors: There are 1,000 meters in a kilometer and 60 minutes in an hour. Therefore, if a car is traveling at 75 kilometers per hour, we can calculate the distance it travels in one minute as follows:

First, convert the speed to meters per hour: 75 km/h * 1,000 m/km = 75,000 m/h.Then, convert meters per hour to meters per minute: 75,000 m/h ÷ 60 min/h = 1,250 meters per minute.

So, a car traveling at 75 kilometers per hour travels 1,250 meters in one minute.

whats 20 divided by 3

Answers

Answer:

I did this on a Calc. but it is 6.666667

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculator

Final answer:

To divide 20 by 3, we use long division. The quotient is 6 remainder 2, or 6.67 as a decimal.

Explanation:

To divide 20 by 3, we can use long division. The divisor, 3, goes into the first digit of the dividend, 2, once. We then multiply 3 by 1, which equals 3, and subtract that from 2. The remainder is 2. We bring down the next digit, 0, and the divisor goes into 20 six times. We then multiply 3 by 6, which equals 18, and subtract that from 20. The remainder is 2. Since there is no longer a digit to bring down, we have our final answer: 20 divided by 3 equals 6 remainder 2, or 6.67 as a decimal.
