On a sunny day, Andrew, who is 1.9 m tall, casts a shadow that is 3.5 m long. A nearby tree casts a shadow that is 28.0 m long. To the nearest tenth of a metre, how tall is the tree?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The explanation is in the photo.. but basically this question is about similar triangles and you need to find the scale factor to find the height.

Hope it helps

On A Sunny Day, Andrew, Who Is 1.9 M Tall, Casts A Shadow That Is 3.5 M Long. A Nearby Tree Casts A Shadow
Answer 2

the height of the tree is approximately 15.2 meters.

To find the height of the tree, we can set up a proportion between Andrew's height and the height of the tree based on their respective shadow lengths.

Let's denote the height of the tree as "h" meters.

The proportion between the height and shadow lengths can be written as:

h / 28.0 = 1.9 / 3.5

Now, we can solve for "h":

h = (1.9 / 3.5) * 28.0

h ≈ 15.2 meters

To the nearest tenth of a meter, the height of the tree is approximately 15.2 meters.

The approximate area of shaded region 2 is 64π - 16π = 48π ≈ 150.796 square inches.

How to estimate geometric areas

In this situation we have a square whose side length is known and two circles whose radii have to be estimated. By direct inspection we find that the diameter of circle A is two thirds of the length of the square side (l), in inches and the diameter of circle B is the half of the diameter of the former. Now we proceed to find the key dimensions of the figure:

Circle A

Diameter: 16 inches

Radius: 8 inches

Circle B

Diameter: 8 inches

Answers

The initial age of 10 years and the spaceship speed of 0.60•c, gives the Andrea's age at the end of the trip as 18 years.

How can Andrea's new age be calculated?

The time dilation using the Lorentz transformation formula is presented as follows;

[tex]t' = \frac{t}{ \sqrt{1 - \frac{ {v}^{2} }{ {c}^{2} } } } [/tex]

From the question, we have;

∆t = Rest frame, Courtney's time, change = 10 years

Therefore;

[tex]\delta t' =\delta t \times \sqrt{1 - \frac{ {(0.6 \cdot c)}^{2} }{ {c}^{2} } } = 8[/tex]

P(Coffee and Muffin) = 15%

P(Tea and Muffin) = 10%

The probability that a student buys coffee OR a muffin before class is

P(Coffee or Muffin) = P(Coffee) + P(Muffin) - P(Coffee and Muffin)

This gives

P(Coffee or Muffin) = 30% + 40% - 15%

What is the -value in the solution to this system of linear equations?y

Answers

The xy-value in the solution to the given system of linear equation shows that x = 2 and y = -4.

What is a system of linear equations?

Whenever two or more linear equations operate simultaneously, we create a System of Linear Equations. These equations must contain one or more similar variables in order to operate together.

When solving a system of linear equations, our objective is to simplify two equations having two variables to a single equation having one variable. Because each equation in the system includes two variables, substituting an expression for a variable is one technique to minimize the number of variables in an equation.

From the given information:

4x + 5y = -12  --- (1)

-2x + 3y = -16 ----- (2)

From equation (1)

4x+5y+(−5y) = −12 + (−5y)       (Add -5y to both sides)

4x = −5y − 12

Divide both sides by 4

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{4x}{4}= \dfrac{-5y-12}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x= \dfrac{-5}{4}y-3}[/tex]

Replacing the value of x in [tex]\mathbf{ \dfrac{-5}{4}y-3}[/tex] into equation (2); we have:

[tex]=\mathbf{-2(\dfrac{-5}{4}y-3)+3y=-16}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{11}{2}y+6 =-16}[/tex]

Simplifying both sides of the equation, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{11}{2}y+6-6 =-16-6}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{11}{2}y=-22}[/tex]

Cross multiply

11y = -44

y = -4

Replace the value of y = -4 into [tex]\mathbf{x= \dfrac{-5}{4}y-3}[/tex]

There are 5 different families of triplets at a triplets convention. Each triplet shook hands with all the other triplets, except his or her siblings. How many handshakes took place?

Answers

There is a total of 90 handshakes.

How many handshakes took place?

There are 5 sets of triplets.

If we select one of the sets, each of the triplets will have one handshake with the other 12 people. So we have 36 handshakes at this point.

Now we only care for the other 4 sets.

We select one set again, each triple on that set will have one handshake with the other 9 people, so for the 3 triplets, we have a total of 27 new handshakes.

For the remaining 3 sets we do the same, this time we add 18 handshakes.

Finally, there are 2 sets of triplets, this time we add 9 new handshakes.

To get the total number of handshakes we need to add them all:

36 + 27 + 18 + 9 = 90
