Solution:
<u>Note that:</u>
- 2(Perimeter of smaller triangle) = Perimeter of larger triangle
<u>Using the perimeter of the smaller triangle, solve for x.</u>
- 2(Perimeter of smaller triangle) = Perimeter of larger triangle
- => 2(3.5 + x + h) = 7 + 4 + 2h
- => 7 + 2x + 2h = 7 + 4 + 2h
- => 2x = 4
- => x = 2
The length of x is 2 units.
Answer:
There is a decreasing pattern the farther they are the less likely hit the target.
Step-by-step explanation:
Y = -4x

My shadow would be 7 feet tall.
Since I am standing next to the fence, then whatever difference its actual height and its shadow has, will be the same difference of my shadow to my actual height.
fence: Actual height - 4 ft ; Shadow height - 5 ft; difference - 1 ft
me : Actual height - 6 ft : Shadow height - ? ; difference - 1ft
Shadow Height - Actual Height = 1 ft
Sh - 6ft = 1ft
Sh = 1ft + 6ft
Sh = 7ft
