A tree is 15 feet tall and casts a shadow of 9 feet. How long is the shadow of a tree 25 feet tall?

Answers

Answer 1
I’m not sure if this is right but I would try to think of the question as a ratio. 15ft casts a 9ft shadow (15:9). But u want to find out the length of the shadow when the tree is 25ft. The initial ratio can be divided by 3 (5:3) this makes it easier to get the 25ft tree and it’s shadow equivalent. 25/5=5 so a 25ft would cast a 15ft shadow

Answer:15ft shadow
Answer 2

Answer:

The shadow is 15 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a proportion question.  Build a proportion using two fractions.

[tex]\frac{\text{tree height}}{\text{shadow length}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{15}{9}=\frac{25}{x}[/tex]

"Cross-multiply" -- you might know this as the Means-Extremes Property of Proportions.

[tex]15x=(25)(9)\\15x=225\\x=15[/tex]

Slope: 5, Y-intercept: 150

Step-by-step explanation:

=> Slope = Change in y / Change in x

Change in y = +35

Change in x = +7, therefore;

Slope = 35 / 7

Slope = 5

=> Y-intercept is the y-value where x = 0, therefore;

Y-intercept = 150

Two trains started from the same station at the same time and traveled in opposite
directions. After traveling 4 hours, they were 480 miles apart. The rate of the fastest
train exceeded the rate of the slow train by 10 mph. Find the rate of each train.
Please help!!

Answers

Answer:

Fastest train: 65 mph

slowest: 55 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 480 by 4

=120

To find average speed divide 120 by 2

=60

call the speed of the slowest train y.

y+(y+10)=120

2y=110

y=110/2=55

y+10=65

What is the angle of elevation θ that is required for a hit ball to just clear the center field fence when it is hit 2 ft above the ground? Show all of your work and round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a degree.

Distance from Home plate to the center field fence: 425 ft

Height of the center field fence: 8 ft

____________________________

ANSWER:

The fence height = 8ft

The fence height takes 2 ft from the ground and doesn't count towards the angle.

Therefore subtract the difference = 8-2 = 6ft

The fence height from the 2ft to the fence top = 6ft

Angle of elevation (θ):

Tan(θ) = opposite/adjacent

Adjacent = Distance from Home plate to the center field fence = 425 ft

Opposite = 6ft

Tan(θ) = 6/425Tan(θ) = 0.0141θ = arctan(0.0141)arctan = inverse of tangent = tan-¹θ = 0.8078°Angle of elevation (θ) = 0.81°

Given y varies inversely as x, and y = 5 when x = 9. *Write the inverse function

Answers

Answer:

y = k/x

k = 45

y = 45/x

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely as x

y = k/x

y = 5 when x = 9

y = k/x

5 = k / 9

Cross product

5 * 9 = k

k = 45

Constant of proportionality, k = 45

y = 45/x

Find the missing term: (x+3)² = x² + 6x + _____

Answers

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for (a + b)^2 expands out to: a^2 + 2ab + b^2. In the case of this problem, a equals x and b equals 3. We can substitute to get:

(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2

(x + 3)^2 = x^2 + 2(x)(3) + (3)^2

(x + 3)^2 = x^2 + 6x + 9

So, the missing term is 9.

Another way to do this is to multiply (x + 3)(x + 3) since it's the same thing:

(x + 3)(x + 3)

x^2 + 3x + 3x +9

x^2 + 6x + 9

By solving this way, you get the same answer.

Answer:

It would be 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, lets expand the equation (x+3)^2 by turning it into:

(x+3)(x+3)

Now, lets try something called the FOIL method. This is where all of the terms of the equation are multiplied in the order:

1) First

2) Outer

3) Inner

4) Last

So in (x+3)(x+3), each of the first parts of each parentheses box are x's, and x times itself equals x^2 so:

x^2 + ? + ? so far.

Next, with the Outer & Inner parts, they would be x * 3 and 3 * x. With this, you would get 3x and 3x. These can be added to get 6x, the middle part of the equation.

x^2 + 6x + ? so far.

Lastly, for the answer. Time to do the last part of each parentheses box, you would get 3 * 3, which gives you 9.

x^2 + 6x + 9.
