Using similar triangles formed by the fence, and the house, the top of which the property line passes, the height of the house can be determined.
The height of the house is 28.8 feet.Reasons:
The given parameters are;
Height of the fence = 12 foot
Length of the shadow cast by the fence = 25 foot
Distance of the house from the property line = 60 feet
The maximum allowable height for the house.
Solution:
Using similar triangles, we have;
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{Height \ of \, fence}{Length \ of \ fence \ shadow} = \mathbf{\frac{Height \ of \, house}{Distance \ of \ house\ from \ property \ line}}[/tex]
Which gives;
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{12}{25} = \mathbf{\frac{Height \ of \, house}{60}}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle Height \ of \ house = \frac{12}{25} \times 60 = 28.8[/tex]
The height of the house = 28.8 feet

If there are 2 quarters for every 3 nickels,
then there are [tex]45*\frac{2}{3} =30[/tex] quarters.
If there are 2 dimes for every quarter,
then there are [tex]30*2=60[/tex] dimes.
If the number of pennies and nickels together are equal to the number of dimes, then there are [tex]60-45=15[/tex] pennies.

x-5/3=1 in the simplest form
[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x-5/3=1[/tex]
[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=1+5/3[/tex]
[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=3+5/3[/tex]

Add 5/3 to both sides[tex]\sf \longmapsto x + \dfrac{ - 5}{3} + \dfrac{5}{3} = 1 + \dfrac{5}{3} [/tex]

which is the largest ratio? 5/36, 2:9, 3 to 18, 1:3
Is the sequence geometric if so identify the common ratio 1/3, 2/9, 4/27, 8/81
Answer:
It is a geometric sequence and the common scale factor is [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same.
[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]
where aₙ is the nth term, a₁ is the first term, n is the index, and d is the common difference.
In a geometric sequence, each consecutive term was multiplied by some factor over the last.
[tex]a_n=ax^n^-^1[/tex]
where aₙ is the nth term, n is the index, and x is the scale factor.
In the given sequence, there is no common difference so it is not an arithmetic sequence. There is, however, a common scale factor applied to each consecutive term. Each term is multiplied by [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] over the last.
The formula for this sequence would be:
[tex]a_n=a\frac{2}{3} ^{n-1}[/tex]
Answer:
r = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If the sequence is geometric then there will be a common ratio r between consecutive terms , that is
r = a₂ ÷ a₁ = a₃ ÷ a₂ = a₄ ÷ a₃
Then
a₂ ÷ a₁ = [tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex] × 3 = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
a₃ ÷ a₂ = [tex]\frac{4}{27}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{27}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
a₄ ÷ a₃ = [tex]\frac{8}{81}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{4}{27}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{81}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{27}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Then sequence is geometric with common ratio r = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

In a class of 35 student 19 takes history and 12 take Economic.if 5 take both subject how many take neither?
help me pleaseeeeeeeee
Answer:
a) 84m
b) 86cm
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 8316/99=84
You take to whole and divide it by the length to get the width.
b) 288-58-58=172/2=86
You take the width and subtract it from the perimeter twice because there are two sides. then take that answer and divide it by two to get what your last two sides equal. This gives you the length.
Two legs of a right triangle are each 70 cm. If one leg grows at the rate of 5cm/min and the oth
shrinks at the rate of 5 cm/min.
A)how fast is the hypotenuse of the triangle changing 2 minutes later?
The rate of change of the hypotenuse after 2 minutes is 0.505 cm/min
Let L be the length of one leg and D be the length of the other leg of the right triangle and y its hypotenuse
Since it is a right angled triangle, we have that, using Pythagoras' theorem
y² = L² + D²
Since the length of sides are the same, L = D = 70 cm.
So, y² = L² + D²
y² = 70² + 70²
y² = 2(70²)
y = 70√2
y = 98.99 cm
Also, one side increases at a rate of 5 cm/min and the other side decreases at a rate of 5 cm/min.
The increase in length of one side after 2 min is 5cm/min × 2 min = 10 cm.
So, it new length is L' = 70 + 10 = 80 cm
The decrease in length of the other side after 2 min is -5cm/min × 2 min = -10 cm.
So, it new length is D' = 70 + (-10 cm) = 60 cm
So, the new hypotenuse length is y' = √(L'² + D'²)
= √(80² + 60²)
= √(6400 + 3600)
= √10000
= 100 cm
Now, the change in length of the hypotenuse side in 2 minutes is Δy = 100 cm - 98.99 cm = 1.01 cm
So, rate of change of the hypotenuse after 2 minutes is 1.01 cm/2 min = 0.505 cm/min
The rate of change of the hypotenuse after 2 minutes is 0.505 cm/min

Answer:
h(x) = - 2x² + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given f(x) then f(x) + c is a vertical translation of f(x)
• If c > 0 then a shift up of c units
• If c < 0 then a shift down of c units
Here the shift is 7 units up , then
h(x) = f(x) + 7 = - 2x² - 4 + 7 = - 2x² + 3
Keith spent $8 on tomatoes. How many did he get?
Answer:
its got 6
Step-by-step explanation:
I REALLY DONT KNOW
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t be the unit cost of the tomatoes: e. g., t = $1.25/lb.
If Keith spent $8 on tomatoes, the number he bought would then be
$8
------------- = 6.4 lb of tomatoes
$1.25/lb
Of course he couldn't buy 0.4 tomato, but this method of calculating how many tomatoes he could buy theoreticallyl is correct.
The general formula would be
$8
------------ and the end result would be the number of pounds Keith could
$t / lb buy for $8.

None of the equations is true.
What is an equation?Two or more expressions with an equal sign are defined as an equation.
The first equation is 54 ÷6 + 3² =4 + 4².
Simplify the equation:
54 ÷6 + 3² =4 + 4²
9 + 9 = 4 + 16
18 = 20
The left side and the right side of the equation are not equal, hence the first equation is not true.
Simplify the second equation:
8042 = 10-22-1
8042 = -13
The second equation is also false.
Simplify the third equation:
62−22=4+7⋅22
40 = -11
The third equation is also false.
Simplify the fourth equation:
19−2⋅5=9⋅73−9
16.5 = 0.73
The fourth equation is also false.
Hence, none of the equations is true.

The measure of ones angle of a triangle is 40. The measure of the other two angles are in a ratio of 3:4
Answer:
40, 60, 80
Step-by-step explanation:
angles are 40, 3x, 4x
40+ 3x + 4x = 180
40 + 7x = 180
7x = 180 - 40
7x = 140
x = 20
so the angles are 40, 60, 80
