The drawing at the right shows a person,
5 feet tall, casting a shadow 3 feet long.
The tree is casting a shadow 15 feet long.
How tall is the tree?
Answers
Answer:
I would say the tree is 18 feet tall
Answer: 25 feet tall
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's take a look at the person. If they are 5 feet tall and cast a shadow of 3 feet, we can easily convert this into a proportion: 5 feet tall: 3 feet shadow.
Continuing with this method, we can convert the tree into a proportion: x feet tall: 15 feet shadow.
So, 5:3=x:15. Mathematically, think of it as 5/3=x/15.
To find x, you will need to multiply 15 to both sides, or perform cross multiplication. (5/3)(15)=(x/15)(15). This will equal 25. The tree is 25 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:
If you were to dilate a point by a scale factor of 2, then if you have the point (-4,0), both the x value and the y value would be multiplied by 2, giving a coordinate of (-8,0). If you do this to the other point, you get (0,4).
Now graph it out, and you get a parallel line that is not right on top, eliminating answer B. It's not C because it is parallel, not intersecting. And it's not D because they are related, they're parallel.

A jar contains 42 red marbles numbered 1 to 42 and 36 blue marbles numbered 1 to 36. A marble is drawn at random from the jar. Find the probability of the given event. Please enter reduced fractions. (a) The marble is red. P(red)= Correct (b) The marble is odd-numbered. P(odd)= Correct (c) The marble is red or odd-numbered. P(red or odd) = Incorrect (d) The marble is blue or even-numbered. P(blue or even) =
Answers
Answer: See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of red marbles = 42
Number of blue marbles = 36
Total number of marbles = 42 + 36 = 78
There are 21 odd numbers between 1 - 42.
There are 18 odd numbers between 1 - 36.
(a) Probability that the marble is red will be:
P(red)= 42 / 78 = 7 / 13
(b) Probability that the marble is odd-numbered will be:
= 39 / 78 = 1/2
(c) Probability that the marble is red or odd-numbered will be:
P(red or odd) = P(red) + p(odd) - P(odd and red)
= (42/78) + (39/78) - (21/78)
= 60/78
= 10/13
(d) Probability that the marble is blue or even-numbered.
= P(blue) + P(even) - P(blue and even)
= 36/78 + 39/78 - 18/78
= 57/78
= 19/26

Samantha created part of a table to show her savings. She saved at the same rate each week. Which graph shows this relationship?
Answers
Answer:
The answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
because it is going up by 6 so graph B is the only graph going up by 6.
The correct graph is with $6, $12, $18, $24.
What is Graph?The graph is simply a structured representation of the data. It aids in our comprehension of the data. The numerical information gathered through observation is referred to as data.
In a line graph, the information or data is represented as a series of markers, or dots, and is then connected to one another by a straight line.
Usually, data that varies over time is represented with a line graph.
Given:
As, from the given graph
The saving increases each week at the same rate therefore saving increases from 3rd to 4th week is 6$. this means that saving increases $6 each week.
Hence, option to is correct with $6, $12, $18, $24.

Given that x² -x -2 is a factor of x³ +3 x² +ax +b, calculate the values of a and b and hence find the remaining factor.
Answers
Answer:
[tex]a = -6, b = - 8[/tex]
Remaining factor = [tex]x+4[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Two polynomials:
[tex]x^{2} -x-2[/tex] and [tex]x^3 +3 x^2 +ax +b[/tex]
[tex]x^{2} -x-2[/tex] is a factor of [tex]x^3 +3 x^2 +ax +b[/tex].
To find:
The values of [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] from the cubic equation and the remaining factor.
Solution:
Let us first of all, factorize [tex]x^{2} -x-2[/tex].
[tex]x^{2} -2x+x-2=0\\\Rightarrow x(x-2)+1(x-2)=0\\\Rightarrow (x+1)(x-2)=0\\\Rightarrow x = -1, 2[/tex]
There are two factors of the given quadratic equation.
These two factors must also be factors of the cubic equation as well.
Putting [tex]x = 2[/tex]:
[tex]2^3 +3 \times 2^2 +a\times 2 +b =0\\\Rightarrow 2a+b=-20 ..... (1)[/tex]
Putting [tex]x = -1[/tex]:
[tex](-1)^3 +3 \times (-1)^2 +a\times (-1) +b =0\\\Rightarrow -a+b=-2 ..... (2)[/tex]
Subtracting (2) from (1):
[tex]3a = -18\\\Rightarrow a = -6[/tex]
From equation (1):
[tex]2\times (-6) + b=-20\\\Rightarrow b = -8[/tex]
Putting the values of [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] in the cubic equation, we get:
[tex]x^3 +3 x^2 -6x -8[/tex]
Dividing the cubic equation with quadratic, we get:
[tex]\dfrac{x^3 +3 x^2 -6x -8}{x^{2} -x-2} = x+4[/tex]
