A pole that is 2.7 m tall casts a shadow that is 1.78 m long. At the same time, a nearby building casts a shadow that is 41.75 m long. How tall is the building? Round your answer to the nearest meter. ?​

height of pole                     =          height of the building

height of the shadow                       height of the shadow

3.3 m       =    x          

1.78 m           49. 75 m

Solve for x.

(3.3 m) (49.75 m)    = x

      1.78 m

92.2331460674 = x

Rounded to the nearest meter, the building is 92 meters high.

Hope that helps.

The fraction bars are not coming out (Underline), I don't know why... but yeah, that is the answer.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
