Jason places a mirror on the ground 40 feet from the base of a tree. He walks backwards until he can see the top of the tree in

the middle of the mirror. At that point, Jason's eyes are 6 feet above the ground and he is 8 feet from the image in the mirror. What is the height of the tree?

Given that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection, we can state tha the angle formed by the eyes of Jason with the mirror is equal to the angle formeb by the top of the three with the same mirror.

Then, you can write this similarity equation:

[height of the eyes of Jason] / [distance from the poistion of Jason to the image on the mirror] = [height of the tree / distance from the mirror to the base of the tree]

6feet / 8feet = x/40feet

x = 40feet *[6/8] = 30 feet.

Answer: 30 feet.

How many intersections are there of the graphs of the equations below? One-halfx + 5y = 6 3x + 30y = 36 none one two infinitely
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

infinitely many

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the system

(1/2)x + 5y = 6

  3x  + 30y = 36

Multiplying the first equation by 6 results in 3x + 30y = 36, which is exactly the same as the second equation.  The two graphs coincide, and so there are infinitely many solutions to this system

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The graph of a continuous probability distribution is a curve. Probability is represented by area under the curve.

The curve is called the probability density function (abbreviated as pdf).

We use the symbol f(x) to represent the curve

therefore

The probability density function f(x) represents . the height of the function at  x.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

I hope this image and explanation helps you!

Step-by-step explanation:

All students in the eighth grade were surveyed, so we can make the valid conclusion that 18% of all students in the eighth grade at Lincoln Junior High School have pancakes as their favorite breakfast.

However, the question did not ask about the students' favorite meal of the day, so we cannot draw any valid conclusions about the students' favorite meal.

The valid conclusion:

18% of all students in the eighth grade at Lincoln Junior High School have pancakes as their favorite breakfast, but we cannot conclude anything about the percent of the population who have breakfast as their favorite meal.
