I need help. A building with a height of 48 m casts a shadow that is 30 m long. A person standing next to the building casts a shadow that is 0.8 m long. How tall is the person?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1.28 m

Step-by-step explanation:

48/30 = x/.8

cross multiply

30x = 48(.8)

30x = 38.4

x = 38.4/30

x = 1.28 m

1/4 x 2 2/3, what is the product? (In fraction)

Answers

1/4 * 8/3 = 8/12 = 2/3

Answer:

8/12

Step-by-step explanation:

you want to write out your problem so it is

1/4 * 2 2/3

then you would want to change your 2nd fraction into an improper fraction (i think.  i don't remember the correct term)

so you would multiply the denominator by the whole number on the side and then add the numerator to it

2 2/3 would them become 8/3 (you keep the denominator the same through the process)

so then you would multiply

1/4 by 8/3

multiply across and you get 8/12

La profesora repartió témperas del mismo tamaño entre los chicos. Mariana usó 3/5 de su pote y Juan 3/4 del suyo. ¿Quién usó mayor cantidad y por qué? Representa con dibujos los potes y lo que se usó

Answers

Answer:

Juan uso mayor cantidad de témpera.

Step-by-step explanation:

Para comparar fracciones que tienen distintos denominadores, como en este caso, es conveniente encontrar fracciones equivalente a las fracciones dadas, donde ambas tengan el mismo denominador. Dos fracciones son fracciones equivalentes cuando representan la misma parte de la unidad.

En este caso, para comparar las fracciones 3/5 y 3/4, obtienes que el mínimo común múltiplo entre los denominadores que es 20 (el denominador común se puede obtener multiplicando ambos denominadores o calculando el m.c.m) y amplificas cada una de las fracciones para que tengan el mismo denominador.

Entonces:

[tex]\frac{3}{5} =\frac{3*4}{5*4} =\frac{12}{20}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3}{4} =\frac{3*5}{4*5} =\frac{15}{20}[/tex]

Cuando dos o más fracciones tienen igual denominador, es mayor la que tiene mayor numerador. Entonces en este caso podes observar 15/20 es mayor. Como 3/4 es una fracción equivalente a 15/20, entonces 3/3 es una fracción mayor. Por lo que es posible decir que Juan uso mayor cantidad de témpera.

Esto también se puede observar en la representación de la imagen adjunta, donde se divide en 1/4 y 1/5 y se encuentra pintado la cantidad usada por Juan y Mariana. En ese caso se puede ver que el área pintada es mayor en el caso de 3/4, la cantidad usada por Juan.

Given that sec(0) =25/7
and 0 is in Quadrant I, find csc(0) and tan(0).

Answers

Answer:

Csc(0)=24/27 and Tan(0)= 24/7

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that secant is the inverse of cos. So that Sec(x) = Cos^-1(x)= hypotenuse/adjacent. We now know that 25 is hypotenuse and 7 is the length of side adjacent to angle theta.

Given this information we can find the length of side opposite to theta, which has length 24.

Now we know:

Hypotenuse=27

Adjacent=7

Opposite=24

Csc is inverse of sin, so that scs=sin^-1=hypotenuse/opposite=27/24

and tan=opposite/adjacent=24/7

Solve the system of equations algebraically.
5g+4k=10
-3g-5k=7

Answers

you want to find a common value which will be 15g
3(5g+4k=10)
5(-3g-5k=7)

15g+12k=30
-15g-25k=35
cross out the g and add the rest
-13k=36
k=-5
Then substitute -5 as k into the original equation
5g+4(-5)=10
5g-20=10
5g=30
g=6
So, K=-5 and G=6

Answer:

k = -5

g = 6

Step-by-step explanation

1) First solve for k and plug that into the other equation to solve for g.

5g + 4k = 10

4k = -5g + 10

k = -5/4g + 2.5

2) Plug k into the other equation to solve for g

-3g - 5k = 7

-3g = 5k + 7

-3g = 5(-5/4g + 2.5) + 7         Use the distributive property

-3g = -6.25g + 12.5 + 7        Combine like terms and simplify

-3g = -6.25g + 19.5               Add 6.25g to both sides

3.25g = 19.5                          Divide 3.25 from both sides to find g

g = 6

3) Now we take this g and plug it into the other equation to find k

(we could also just plug it into this equation as well)

5g + 4k = 10

5(6) + 4k = 10

30 + 4k = 10

4k = -20

k = -5.

If we really wanted to doube check this then we could plug the k value into the equation we used to find the g value...

-3(6) - 5(-5) = 7

-18 + 25 = 7

So yes, k = -5 and g = 6.

Three computers just scanned for viruses at the same time. Computer A runs a virus scan every 10 days. Computer B runs a virus scan every 12 days, and Computer C runs a virus scan every 16 days. How long will it be until all the computers run a virus scan at the same time again?

Answers

Answer: 240 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of days that it'll will be until all the computers run a virus scan at the same time again will be calculated by solving for the lowest common multiples of the numbers. This will be:

Multiples of 10 = 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200, 210, 220, 230, 240.

Multiples of 12 = 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144, 156, 168, 180, 192, 204, 216, 228, 240

Multiples of 16 = 16, 32, 48, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 144, 160, 176, 192, 208, 224, 240

Here, we can see that the least common multiple is 240. Therefore, all the computers will scan at the same time in 240 days.

Answer:

(I'm not sure what you're asking but I believe you're asking for the coordinate where they intersect!)

The lines intersect at (0, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:

12x-5y=-20

y=x+4

1) Simplify the first equation!

12x-5y=-20

Move 12x to the other side (remember when you move numbers to the opposite side of the equation, it makes them negative) to isolate y!

-5y=-20-12x

Divide all numbers by -5 to just get the variable y

y=4+12/5x

2) Solve

I'm going to be solving by substitution since I like this method the best!

y=4+12/5x

y=x+4

1) Set the equations equal to another (you'll be replacing the variable of y for an equation)

x+4 will be replacing y of the other equation

x+4 = 4+12/5x

2) Simplify

Subtract x on both sides

x-x + 4 = 4+ 12/5x-x

4=4+7/5x

Subtract 4 on both sides

0=7/5x

x is equal to 0!

3) Find y

1) Set x equal to 0 in an equation (I'm doing y=x+4 because it's easier!)

y=x+4

y=0+4

2) Simplify

y=4

Answers

Answer:

32 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

$3 flat fee for a package, plus a fee based on the weight of the package. The company charges $0.75 per pound, plus an additional $0.50 for every pound over 12 pounds.

The first step would be to derived an equation

$3 + $0.75

3 + 0.75x

Where x = number of pounds

George plans on sending a package that is over 12 pounds. He has $27 to spend on shipping.

Hence,

3 + 0.75x = 27

0.75x + 3 = 27

0.75x = 27 - 3

0.75x = 24

x = 24/0.75

x = 32 pounds

The maximum number of pounds that this package could be is 32 pounds

The length of a rectangle is equal to triple the width. what is its width and length if its perimeter is 88 centimeters.

Answers

Answer:

56fifjjfiggitrireieisixii3eiirr

Answer:

Length = 33 cm

width = 11 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 3w           ⇒ eq. 1

88 = 2(a+w)   ⇒ eq. 2

a = length

w = width

then:

replacing the value of the eq. 1 on the eq. 2

88 = 2(3w + w)

88/2 = 4w

44 = 4w

w = 44/4

w = 11 cm

from the eq. 1

a = 3w

a = 3*11

a = 33cm

Check:

perimeter = 88 = 2(a+w)

88 = 2(33+11)

88 = 2*44
