When a 40-foot pole casts a shadow of
30 feet, how tall is a nearby tree that
casts a shadow of 15 feet?
Set up a ratio with height over shadow height:
40/30 = x/15
Cross multiply:
40 x 15 = 30x
600 = 30x
Divide both sides by 30:
X = 20
The tree is 20 feet tall.
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
It tells you that a 40 foot pole casts a 30 foot then it asks you how tall is a tree if it casts a 15 foot shadow. We see that 30 is exactly 2 times 15
30 = 2 * 15
So we simply do that to 40 too.
40 / 2 = 20
So 20 is our answer.
Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -3) and (-4,1).
Put your answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal
line.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to explain this in standard slope intercept form (y=mx+b) because it is easiest for this situation. I will also include converting it to point slope form. I will also show how to do straight into point slope form if you find that more helpful.
First thing is to identify difference in x and y in both points. From point 1 to point to, the x changes -4 and the y changes +4. We can rapresent this in rise over run fraction
[tex] \frac{4}{ - 4} = - 1[/tex]
So the slope is -1 because the slope is the simplified rise over run fraction.
Our next step is to find the y-intercept. This is easy because the first point is the y-intercept, so -3 is our y-intercept.
Now we know the equation.
[tex]y = - x - 3[/tex]
All we have to do now is convert it into point-slope form. So here is point slope form: y + y1 = m(x + x1). Y1 is the y-intercept and m is the slope.
[tex]y - 3 = - 1(x + x1)[/tex]
So x1 is the x intercept, so to find this you find the x value when y is 0. You can do this by using the standard form I've done because it is easiest.
[tex]0 = - x - 3 \\ x = - 3[/tex]
So when y is 0, then x is -3. Here is the complete point slope form of the line.
[tex]y - 3 = - 1(x - 3)[/tex]
-----------------------------------------------------
To put the line directly into point slope for you need to find the slope, y-intercept, and x-intercept and place the values in accordingly. If you aren't given the y-intercept and x-intercept straight away it can be difficult for some putting it directly in point slope form. That is why I recommend putting it into standard form then point-slope form.
Answer:
y=-1x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to find the slope using the formula I attached. Using this formula, you will subtract the second y from the first y, which is 1-(-3) for this problem. That equals 4, so that will be the numerator of the slope. Next, you have to subtract the second x from the first x, which is -4-0 for this problem. That equals -4, so that will be the denominator for this slope. the fraction now is [tex]\frac{4}{-4}[/tex], which is -1. The slope is -1. The current equation looks like this: y=-1x+b. Now we can solve for b, or the y-intercept. To do this, you have to use the x and y of one of the coordinates, it doesn't matter which one, the answer will be the same. Use the first one, for example. The x is 0 and the y is -3, so the our equation to find b is -3=-1(0)+b, which is -3=0+b, which is -3=b, or b=-3. So now we know what b is. Now we have to two components we need to write the equation, the slope (-1) and the y-intercept (-3). Now we can write the equation. y=-1x+(-3), or y=-1x-3.

skateboard: regular price, $24
sale price, $15.50
help. PLEASE.
Answer:8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
step one
find the difference between marked price and the selling price, which is 24-15.50=8.5
step two apply the formula which is, difference divided by marked or original price and then multiple by 100
eg (8.5÷24) × 100= 35.4
so now round off to the nearest percent that's 35%

Question : If lines BG and CF are parallel, then OLF = OMG. Is this statement correct? Explain your answer.
Answer:
Yes this statement is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
just mental math
The statement given that ∠OLF = ∠OMG is found to be; Correct from theorem of corresponding angles.
We are told that;
BC is parallel to CF
Now, we are told that;
∠OLF = ∠OMG
We can see that line DH is a transverse line that crosses the two parallel lines given as BG and CF
Now, according to theorem of corresponding angles, the angle's that are formed when two parallel lines are crossed by a transverse line are said to be equal because they correspond to one another.
In conclusion, it is true from corresponding angles that ∠OLF and ∠OMG are equal.

Skies travel charges two-fifty for a plane ticket and $28 per day for rental car. For the same trip, r&r travels charges 305 for a plane ticket and 23 per day for car rental. What is the minimum number of days in martin's vacation should be or r&r travel to be a better deal for him?
Given :
Skies travel charges two-fifty for a plane ticket and $28 per day for rental car.
For the same trip, r&r travels charges 305 for a plane ticket and 23 per day for car rental.
To Find :
The minimum number of days in martin's vacation should be or r&r travel to be a better deal for him.
Solution :
Let, minimum number of days are x.
So, cost charged by Skies travel is, [tex]c_1 = 25+28x[/tex]
Cost charged by r&r travels is, [tex]c_2 = 305 + 23x[/tex]
r&r should be better deal when :
[tex]c_2 < c_1\\\\305 + 23x <25 + 28x\\\\5x >280\\\\x>56[/tex]
So, for better deal at r&r minimum number of vacation days is 57.
Hence, this is the required solution.
