An observation tower's shadow is 32 feet long. Not far away, a marble column's shadow is 8 feet long. If the observation tower is 60 feet tall, how tall is the marble column?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This is calculated using the formula

Height of observation tower/Shadow of observation tower = Height of Marble column/Shadow of marble column

From the question

Height of observation tower = 60 ft

Shadow of observation tower = 32 ft

Height of Marble column = ? x

Shadow of marble column = 8 ft

Hence:

60ft/32ft = x/8ft

Cross Multiply

60ft × 8 ft = 32ft × x

x = 60 ft × 8 ft/32 ft

x = 15 ft

Therefore, the marble column is 15 feet tall

Answer : False.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

The equations of line a and line b are:

line a : y= 5x-6...........(i)

line b : x+5y= 5..........(ii)

Firstly find the slope of both equation.

To find slope of first equation;

y= 5x-6

Comparing the equation with y= mx+c. We get;

Slope (m1) = 5.

Now,

To find slope of second equation;

Slope (m2) = (-coefficient of x)/(coefficient of y)

Slope (m2) = (-1/5)

Therefore, the slope of second equation is -1/5.

As per the condition of parallel lines, slope of 1st equation should be equal to 2nd equation.

Now, comparing their slopes;

5≠(-1/5)

Therefore, the answer is "False".

Hope it helps....

Line A

y=5x-6

Compare to slope intercept form

slope=m=5

LineB

x+5y=55y=5-xy=1-1/5x

Slope

k=-1/5

As slopes are negative reciprocal to each other lines are perpendicular to sach other not parallel

Hence it's False

Laura tiene una tarifa de telefono en la que paga solo por el tiempo que dura cada llamada .Si un minuto cuesta o,16€ ysu ultima llamada duro 3,15 min ¿cuanto tendra que pagar?

Answers

Answer:

50,4 €

Step-by-step explanation:

De la pregunta anterior,

1 minuto = 16 €

3,15 minutos = x

Cruz multiplicar

x × 1 minuto = 16 € × 3,15 minutos

x = € 16 × 3,5 minutos / 1 minuto

x = 50,4 €

Por tanto, por una llamada de 3,15 minutos, Laura tendrá que pagar 50,4 €.

Trigonometric Functions

We need to recall some properties and definitions of the trigonometric functions.

[tex]\displaystyle \tan \theta=\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \sec \theta=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}[/tex]

We need to simplify the following expression:

[tex]5\sin\theta\sec\theta[/tex]

Substituting the identity for the secant:

[tex]\displaystyle 5\sin\theta\sec\theta=5\sin\theta.\frac{1}{\cos\theta}[/tex]

Operating:

[tex]\displaystyle 5\sin\theta\sec\theta=5\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}[/tex]

Substituting the definition of the tangent:

I have a square with a side of 5.25 in. There is a circle inside this square that is big enough to touch all four sides. What is the area that is not inside the circle?

Answers

Answer:

5.9125in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

Dimension of square= 5.25 in

Area of sqaure= 5.25^2= 27.5625  in^2

We are told that the sides of the circle touch the sides of the square

hence the diameter of the circle is 5.25in

radius= 5.25/2= 2.625 in

Area of  circle= πr^2

Area of circle = 3.142*2.625^2

Area of circle=3.142*6.890625

Area of circle= 21.65 in^2

Step two:

The area that is not inside the circle

=Area of square-Area of circle

=27.5625- 21.65

=5.9125in^2

Answer:

x = 2, y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you're finding the pattern and then finding x and y, in which case it would be:

In the first one (x, 3, 4, 5, 6) you can see it goes up by 1 each time so x is just 2.

In the second one (y, 9, 12, 15, 18) it goes up by 3 each time so y = 9-3 = 6.

Heeeeelp pleaseeeee I will mark brainliest (if the answer is right)

Answers

Answer:

p = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope equation is:

[tex]m = \frac{y \frac{}{2} - y \frac{}{1} }{x \frac{}{2} - x \frac{}{1} } [/tex]

then to know the value of "p":

[tex] - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7 - p}{p - 9} \\ - 1(p - 9) = 3(7 - p) \\ - p + 9 = 21 - 3p \\ 3p - p = 21 - 9 \\ 2p = 12 \\ p = \frac{12}{2} \\ p = 6[/tex]
