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.

Torrance is shopping for a school party. His donation to the party is snack bags and juice boxes. Snack bags come in packages of 12, and juice boxes come in a package of 10 . What is the fewest number of packages of each product Torrance must purchase so that he has the same number of snack bags and juice boxes?
Answers
Answer:
5 snack bags and 6 juice boxes.
Step-by-step explanation:
The least common multiple of 12 and 10 is 60. If he buys 5 snack bags and 6 juice boxes, he will have 60 of each. 12 goes into 60 5 times, and 10 goes into 60 6 times.

HELLP NOW I NEED ANSWER AND WORK/EXPLANATION!(Emily’s car broke down the weekend before she started a new job. She borrowed $880 from her parents, at an annual interest rate of 3%, to quickly pay for the car repairs. If Emily paid her parents a total of $893.20 in six months, how much simple interest did she pay?
Answers
Answer:
13.20 or 1.5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Emily borrowed 880, you need to subtract 893.20 from 880. That equals 13.20. The percentage of interest is 1.5 because 6 months is half of a year and the annual interest rate is 3 percent.

Solve the system of equations by elimination.
2x - y + 3z=-1
x + 2y - 4z=-1
y – 2z=0
Answers
Answer:
x = -1, y = 2 and z = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The given system of equations are :
2x - y + 3z= -1 ....(1)
x + 2y - 4z = -1 ......(2)
y – 2z = 0 .....(3)
Equation (3) can be written as :
y = 2z
Use y = 2z in equation (2)
x + 2(2z) - 4z = -1
x + 4z - 4z = -1
x = -1
Put the value of x in equation (1) :
-2 -y +3z = -1
-y+3z = 1 ....(4)
Adding equation (3) and (4)
y-2z+(-y+3z)=1
z = 1
Now put z = 1 in equation (4)
-y+3=1
-y = -2
y = 2
Hence, the values of x,y and z are -1, 2 and 1 respectively.

You can't check to see if your answer makes sense if there is no answer. You can't identify what your trying to find if you don't know the question.

Five congruent squares are put together without gaps or overlap to form a figure shaped like a plus sign. The
perimeter of the figure is 72 cm. Find the area of the figure, in cm?
Answers
Answer:
180 square centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the five squares are congruent, the 12 sides of the figure are all equal in length. Then the length of one side is 72/12 = 6 cm. Therefore, the area of each square is 36 sq cm and the area of the figure, 5 x 36, is 180 sq cm.
