a telephone booth 7 ft tall casts a shadow 20 ft long. At the same time, a nearby fire hydrant casts a shadow 8 ft long. Find the height of the fire hydrant

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2 4/5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' = height of fire hydrant

7/20 = x/8

cross-multiply:

20x = 56

x = 56/20 or 14/5, which is 2 4/5

Answer:

14. She deposited $15.50 into her bank.

15. The width would be 900.

Step-by-step explanation:

14. 245.60 + x = 261.10

x = 15.50

245.60 + 15.50 = 261.10.

She deposited $15.50 into her bank and resulted in her new bank balance appearing as $261.10.

15. Width is 900 cm

Length is 12 cm.

A = L X W = 108

A = L * 3/4L

108 = 3/4L2

Divide both sides by 3/4: multiply both sides by the inverse of 3/4 or 4/3.  

(4/3)*108 = L2

144 = L2

√144 = L

12 = L

W = 3/4*12

W = 9

Before we finish:

 

A = 108 = 9 x 12 = 108

W/L = 3/4 = 9/12 = 3/4

The width of the rectangle would be 3/4.

An aquarium can hold 48 gallons of water. If the aquarium is filled with containers holding 12 quarts of water each, how many containers will it take to fill the aquarium with water?

Answers

Answer: 16 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

First and foremost, we should note that:

4 quarts = 1 gallon

48 gallons = 48 × 4 = 192 quarts

Since the container holds 12 quarts of water each, the number of containers needed to fill the aquarium with water will be:

= 192 quarts / 12 quarts

= 16 containers

Write a compound interest function to model each situation. Then find the balance after the given number of years.

$50,000 invested at a rate of 3% compounded monthly; 6 years

$43,000 invested at a rate of 5% compounded annually; 3 years

$65,000 invested at a rate of 6% compounded quarterly; 12 years​

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard compound interest formula is [tex]A = P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex] where:

P is the principal amount

r is the interest rate (typically as a percentage)

t is the time

n is the times compounded per unit of time

So,

1)  [tex]A = 50000(1+\frac{0.03}{12})^{(12)(6)} =59847.42[/tex]

2) [tex]A = 43000(1+\frac{0.05}{1})^{(1)(3)} =49777.88[/tex]

3) [tex]A = 65000(1+\frac{0.06}{4})^{(4)(12)} =132826.08[/tex]

Part A: What is the shortest distance between the gymnasium and the library? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a kilometer.


Part B: Gabe walks the shortest distance from his house to the gymnasium, then the shortest distance to the library. What is the total distance Gabe walked?

Answers

Answer:

4.5 km

10.3 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest distance from gymnasium to library:

Each square box representing 1 unit

1unit = 1 km

A.)

Distance, d ;

Using Pythagoras :

d = sqrt(2² + 4²)

d = sqrt(4 + 16)

d = sqrt(20)

d = 4.47

d = 4.50 (nearest tenth)

Shortest Distance from gymnasium to library

B.)

shortest distance from his house to the gymnasium, then the shortest distance to the library

House to gymnasium (d1) :

d1 = sqrt(3² + 5²)

d1 = sqrt(9 + 25)

d1 = sqrt(34)

d1 = 5.83

Gymnasium to Library (d2) :

d2 = sqrt(2² + 4²)

d2 = sqrt(4 + 16)

d2 = sqrt(20)

d2 = 4.47

Total distance = (d1 + d2) = (5.83 + 4.47) = 10.3km

The equation 200x - y + 500 = 0 relates y, the number of pairs of skates the factory has in the warehouse and x, the number of hours after bruno starts his shift. Show that the equation is a linear equation by writing it in a slope-intercept form. Show your work

Answers

Answer:

Slope- intercept form       y = 200 x + 500

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given that the equation

        200x - y + 500 = 0

where   y, the number of pairs of skates the factory has in the warehouse, and x be the number of hours

The slope-intercept form

                 y = m x +C

Given equation  200x - y + 500 = 0

                           200 x + 500 =y

                        y = 200 x + 500

Slope of the equation m = 200 and y-intercept 'C' = 500
