The distance between the flagpole and the building is the number of feet between them
The building is 162 feet from the flagpole
How to determine the distanceThe given parameters are:
Flagpole = 40 feetBuilding Shadow = 324 feetThe flagpole's shadow is 50% longer than the flagpole.
So, the length (l) of the flagpole's shadow is:
[tex]l = 40 * (1 + 50\%)[/tex]
[tex]l = 60[/tex]
The length of the building's shadow (d) is then calculated as:
[tex]60 : 40 =d : 324[/tex]
Express as fraction
[tex]\frac{60}{40}= \frac{d}{324}[/tex]
[tex]1.50 = \frac{d}{324}[/tex]
Solve for d
[tex]d = 1.50 * 324[/tex]
[tex]d = 486[/tex]
The distance (x) of the building from the flagpole is then calculated as:
[tex]x = 486 - 324[/tex]
[tex]x = 162[/tex]
Hence, the building is 162 feet from the flagpole

A boy band is performing a concert on the 10th of December and the stadium has 5000 square metres of space for the audience. The stadium is split such that 40% of the space is the mosh pit and 60% of the space is seated and each seat is 2 square metres in size. If 80% of the people assigned to a seat stand up during the performance, now many people are sitting down during the performance?
A 4,000
B 1,200
C. 1000
D. 300

Hi!
The ratio in the picture is 3:12. There are 3 tbsp of vinegar for every 12 tbsp of water.
[tex]\frac{3}{12}[/tex] can be simplified to [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] by dividing the numerator and denominator by 3.
1 cup of vinegar to 4 cups of water is also [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex].

find the value of x
picture attached
Answer:
x must be 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Write and solve an equation of ratios. Start with the ratio of the hypotenuses:
x + 2 x
----------- = --------
x + 5 x + 2
Cross multiplying results in (x + 2)^2 = x^2 + 5x
performing the indicated squaring, (x + 2)^2 = x^2 + 4x + 4. And therefore:
x^2 + 4x + 4 = x^2 + 5x
Simplifying, we get 4x + 4 = 5x, so x must be 4

Two cars leave a rest stop at the same time and proceed to travel down the highway in the same direction. One travels at an average rate of 49 miles per hour, and the
other at an average rate of 68 miles per hour. How far apart are the two cars after 4.5 hours?
Answer:
The answer is going to be 85.5 miles apart.
Step-by-step explanation:
if the first car is going 49 miles for every hour and the second at 68 we now have our two numbers. then we know its 4.5 hours so our equation goes like this.
(68*4.5)-(49*4.5)=y
We do our rules with pemdas and what not.
we get
306-220.5=y
We subtract and bam

Step-by-step explanation:
A number that is increased by 50% and then decreased by 50% is called sequential percentage calculation or successive percentage calculation.
50 percent minus 50 percent is 0 percent, but you cannot simply take 0 percent of a number to get the correct answer when you want to increase a number by 50 percent and then decrease the result by 50 percent.
solve cos(2x)=1-sin(x)
Given:
[tex]cos(2x)=1-sin(x)[/tex]
Expanding using double angle formula,
[tex]1 - 2 \sin^{2} (x) = 1 - \sin(x) [/tex]
Rearranging into a single equation,
[tex]1 - 2 \sin^{2}(x) - 1 + \sin(x) = 0[/tex]
Combining like terms,
[tex] - 2 \sin^{2} (x) + \sin(x) = 0[/tex]
Now multiplying each term by -1,
[tex]2 \sin^{2} (x) - \sin(x) = 0[/tex]
Factor greatest common factors out,
[tex] \sin(x)(2 \sin(x) - 1) = 0[/tex]
Applying Zero property rule,
[tex] \sin(x) = 0 \: or \: 2 \sin(x) - 1 = 0[/tex]
{ For sin(x) = 0• Solve the trignometric equation to find a particular solution,

[tex] = > x = 2nπ \: or \: x = π + 2nπ[/tex]
• Find the union of the solution sets,
[tex]x = nπ[/tex]}
{ For 2 sin(x) - 1 = 0 ,• Rearrange unknown terms to the left side,
[tex]2 \sin(x) = 1[/tex]
• Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable,
[tex] \sin(x) = \frac{1}{2} [/tex]
• Solve the trignometric equation to find a particular solution,
[tex]x = \frac{π}{6} \: or \: x = \frac{5π}{6} [/tex]
[tex] = > x = \frac{π}{6} + 2nπ \: or \: x = \frac{5π}{6} + 2nπ,n∈Z[/tex]
}
☆ Now finding the union of both sets
[tex]x = nπ \: or \: x = \frac{π}{6} + 2nπ \: or \: x = \frac{5π}{6} + 2nπ,n∈Z[/tex]
Hence, the answer is [tex]x = nπ \: or \: x = \frac{π}{6} + 2nπ \: or \: x = \frac{5π}{6} + 2nπ,n∈Z[/tex]

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all fractions. 2x-10y=-20.
As a result, the slope is 1/5 and the y-intercept is 2, and the equation is written in slope-intercept form as y = (1/5)x + 2.
what is slope intercept ?On a two-dimensional coordinate plane, the equation of a line is shown using the slope-intercept form. Y = mx + b, where m is the line's slope and b is the y-intercept, is how the equation is expressed. The pace at which the line is rising or dropping is indicated by the slope (m). It is the ratio of any two places on the line's vertical change (rise) to horizontal change (run). In other words, it informs you of the line's steepness. The line is rising from left to right if the slope is positive, and descending from left to right if the slope is negative.
given
We must find y in order to convert the equation 2x - 10y = -20 into slope-intercept form, which is represented by the formula y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
2x - 10y = -20
Initially, we must separate the y term from the other terms by deducting 2x from both sides:
-10y = -2x - 20
The next step is to separate y by multiplying both sides by -10:
y = (2/10)x + 2
When we simplify the fraction, we obtain:
y = (1/5)x + 2
As a result, the slope is 1/5 and the y-intercept is 2, and the equation is written in slope-intercept form as y = (1/5)x + 2.

A seesaw is 3 metres long. It is balanced when child A sits 0.8 m from the pivot and child B sits 0.6 m from the pivot. Child A has a weight of 300 N. i. Draw a force diagram to represent this system. (Ensure that you label the force and distances given.) ii. Use the principle of moments to determine the weight of child B.
Answer:
i) see attached diagram
ii) 400 N
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we don’t know the mass of the seesaw, take moments about M (so we don’t have to consider R or mg).
Moment = Force x Perpendicular Distance to the Pivot
As the system is in equilibrium, total anti-clockwise moment = total clockwise moment:
⇒ 300 × 0.8 = b × 0.6
⇒ 0.6 b = 240
⇒ b = 400 N
A line going through the points (-3, -10) with a slope m = 1/4.
Step-by-step explanation:
(-3,5) and (x,y)
Slope = (y - 5)/[x - (-3)] = (y - 5)/(x + 3)
(y - 5)/(x + 3) = -1/4
y - 5 = -1/4(x + 3)
y - 5 = (-1/4)x - 3/4
y = (-1/4)x - 3/4 + 5
y = (-1/4)x + 17/4.
