Let us say that x is the real height of the original hut,
therefore we can establish the equation:
5 : x = 1.5 : 8
5 / x = 1.5 / 8
Solving for x:
x = 5 * 8 / 1.5
x = 40 / 1.5

Answer:
1/5, 1/6, 1/7, 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the sequence is (n+3)!/ (n+4)!
The first terms uses n=1
a1 = (1+3)!/ (1+4)! = 4!/5! = (4*3*2*1)/(5*4*3*2*1) = 1/5
The first terms uses n=2
a2 = (2+3)!/ (2+4)! = 5!/6! = (5*4*3*2*1)/(6*5*4*3*2*1) = 1/6
The first terms uses n=3
a3 = (3+3)!/ (3+4)! = 6!/7! = (6*5*4*3*2*1)/(7*6*5*4*3*2*1) = 1/7
The first terms uses n=4
a4 = (4+3)!/ (4+4)! = 7!/8! = (7*6*5*4*3*2*1)/(8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1) = 1/8
The mistake is there is no parenthesis around 4x+12
Answer:
<h2>5 quarts</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's think through this bit by bit.
<em>10 lbs * 16 oz/lb = 160 oz. of apples.</em>
In the proportion below, we can see we simply divide by 8, in terms of magnitude.
8 oz -> 1 cup
160 oz -> 160/8 -> 20 cup
20 cups! Is it the answer? NO! They're asking for it in units of <em>quarts, not cups.</em>
We must remember that 1 quart = 4 cups.
20 cups * 1/4 qt/cups = 5 quarts
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When two chords intersect inside the circle, the product of their segments are equal.
BE * ED = AE * EC
x *3x = 4 *3
3x² = 12 {Divide both sides by 3}
x² = 12/3
x² = 4
x = √4
x = 2
