At 3:00 PM a man 138 cm tall casts a shadow 149 cm long. At the same time, a tall building nearby casts a shadow 163 m long. How tall is the building?
The building is 151 meters tall
How to determine the height of the building?From the question, we have the following parameters about the building and the man
Man's height = 138 cm
Man's shadow = 149 cm
Building's shadow = 163 m
Based on the above parameters, we have the following equivalent ratio:
Ratio = Height : Shadow
So, we have:
Man's height : Man's shadow = Building's height : Building's shadow
Substitute the known values in the above equation
138 cm : 149 cm = Building's height : 163 m
Remove the units
138 : 149 = Building's height : 163
Express as fraction
138 /149 = Building's height/163
Multiply both sides by 163
Building's height = 163 * 138 /149
Evaluate the product
Building's height = 151 m
Hence, the building is 151 meters tall
So, the complete parameters are:
Man's height = 138 cm
Man's shadow = 149 cm
Building's shadow = 163 m
Building's height = 151 m

PLS HELP ME OUT ON THIS QUESTION. I’m trying to study!
Answer: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this problem by recognizing that z is the geometric mean of 9 and 9+4. This property is outlined in the following formula:
[tex]\frac{hypotenuse}{leg}=\frac{leg}{part}[/tex]
where hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle, leg is the side of the triangle we are calculating for, and part is the part of the hypotenuse on the side of the leg.
Here, the hypotenuse is 13, or 4 + 9. The leg is z, as it is the side of the triangle we are trying to find. Finally, the part is 9. It is the part of the hypotenuse that is on the side of the leg.
Let's plug in these values:
[tex]\frac{13}{z}=\frac{z}{9}\\117=z^2\\z=\sqrt{117}[/tex]
117 is the product of 9 and 13. Since 9 is a perfect square, we can take it out from the square root.
[tex]z=\sqrt{9*13}\\z=\sqrt{9}*\sqrt{13}\\z=3\sqrt{13}[/tex]
The "?" must be a 3.

Q6: 5 times the sum of 3 and 4, then subtract 4.
Q7: Add 8 to half the difference of 6 and 2, then subtract 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 6:[tex]5 \times (3 + 4) -4[/tex]
• First of all, we can see that 5 is being multiplied by something, so we can say "5 times...".
• Next we see that the 5 was being multiplied by the sum of 3 and 4, so we can combinedly say "5 times the sum of 3 and 4...".
• And finally, we see that 4 is taken away from the result. Therefore we can say " 5 times the sum of 3 and 4, then subtract 4".
Question 7:[tex]8 + \frac{1}{2} \times (6-2) -1[/tex]
• Firstly, we can see that 8 is being added to something, so we can say "Add 8...".
• Next, we see that 8 was being added to [tex]\bf \frac{1}{2}[/tex] of something, so we can combinedly say "Add 8 to half of...".
• Then we see that the difference (i.e., result of subtraction) of 6 and 2 was being halved. Therefore we say "Add 8 to half of the difference of 6 and 2...".
• Finally, we can see that 1 is subtracted from the result. Therefore, we can say "Add 8 to half of the difference of 6 and 2, then subtract 1".
________13. Write an equation of a circle centered at the origin with radius 3.
Answer:
13. x^2 + y^2 = 3
14. B
Step-by-step explanation:
13. Since it's centered at the origin, (0, 0), the values of h and k in (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 are equal to zero. So we simply have x^2 + y^2, and since the radius is the square root of 3, squaring the radius gives us 3.
14. B is the only circle with both a radius of 3 that's also shifted to the right 1 and down 2, since it's centered at (h, k), which is (1, -2).

The number of each of these squares we can find that is covered by the park on the grid is: 48 squares.
Therefore, the area of 48 squares on the grid = 48 × 1 = 48 km². Since not all squares are fully covered by the park, we can state that the approximate area of the park on the grid is: E. about 40 km² to 50 km².

I believe that its easier to understand the multiplication of a radical than that of a polynomial.
How to illustrate the information?In mathematics, a radical is the opposite of an exponent that is represented with a symbol '√' also known as root.
A polynomial is an expression which is composed of variables, constants and exponents, that are combined using the mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
When multiplying radicals with the same index, multiply under the radical, and then multiply in front of the radical. An example is:

What number should go in the space? Multiplying by 1.36 is the same as increasing by _________%.
The required percentage increase is 36%. So, a number increased by 36% is the same as the number multiplied by 1.36.
How to calculate the percentage increase of a number?The formula for calculating the percentage increase of a number is
%increase = 100 × (Final - initial)/initial
Calculation:Consider the number as 'x'
The result when the number is multiplied by 1.36 is 1.36x
So, the percentage increase is calculated as follows:
%increase = 100 × (Final - initial)/initial
Where Initial = x and Final - 1.36x
⇒ %increase = 100 × (1.36x - x)/x
⇒ %increase = 100 × x(1.36 - 1)/x
⇒ %increase = 100 × 0.36
⇒ %increase = 100 × 36/100
∴ %increase = 36
Thus, when a number is multiplied by 1.36, the result obtained is equal to the 36% increase in the number.
