a 15 foot tall tree is next to a slide tree is casting a shadow of 20 feet and the slide is casting a shadow that is 16 feet how tall is the slide

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: ok ratio and proportion
realheight:shadow=15:20

slide shadow=16
therefor find realheightslide

15:20=realheightslide:16
simplify
3:4=realheight:16
fractionfy
3/4=realheight/16
multiply both sides by 16
48/4=realheight
12=realheight

aswer is 12 feet

Identify a benchmark to find the equivalent percent for 6/10

Answers

Answer:

Benchmark used is 3×2/10 = 6/10 = 3×(2/10of100%) = 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to identify a benchmark to find the equivalent of 6/10, we can rewrite 6/10 as 3×2/10.

This can be interpreted as summation of 2/10 in 3 places i.e 6/10 = 2/10+2/10+2/10

Then we find the equivalent percent of 2/10 = 2/10×100 = 20%

Since;

6/10=3×2/10

The equivalent percent of 6/10 will be;

6/10 = 3×2/10 = 3×20%

= 60%

60%=6/10

PLEASE HURRY.Which expressions can be used to find the coordinates of the midpoint of PQ with endpoints P(3, –1) and Q(–7, –6)? Check all that apply.

((3+7)/2) can be used to find the x-coordinate of the point.

((-1-6)/2) can be used to find the y-coordinate of the point.

(–7 – 3) + 3 can be used to find the x-coordinate of the point.

(–6 – 1) – 1 can be used to find the y-coordinate of the point.

– 1 can be used to find the y-coordinate of the point.

Answers

we know that
the expression to find the x coordinate of the midpoint of PQ is
Mx=(x1+x2)/2
Mx=(Px+Qx)/2-----> (3-7)/2----> -2

the expression to find the y coordinate of the midpoint of PQ is
My=(y1+y2)/2
My=(PyQy)/2-----> (-1-6)/2----> -3.5

the midpoint is (-2,-3.5)

the answer is
((-1-6)/2) can be used to find the y-coordinate of the point.
