Ruth decides to use the method of proportions and similar triangles to find the height of a tree. She measures the length of the tree's shadow and finds it is 12 feet long. Then she holds a 12-inch ruler perpendicular to the ground and finds that it casts a 6-inch shadow. How tall is the tree? a. 2 ft c. 24 ft b. 6 ft d. 144 ft
Answer:
c. 24 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
if the 12 inch ruler casts a 6 inch shadow (shadow has half size) then a tree with 12 feet long shadow will have a height of 24 feet

Expression 1
5 x squared minus 2 x minus 4 + 6 x + 3
Expression 2
6 x squared minus 6 x + 6 minus x squared + 10 x minus 7
A.) The two expressions are not equivalent because when x = 2, the two expressions do not have the same value.
b.)The two expressions are not equivalent because when they are simplified, they do not have the same coefficients for the x squared and x terms.
c.) They are equivalent because the sum of the constants is the same in both expressions.
D.) They are equivalent because when x = 2, the two expressions have the same value.

An expression is 6xa^3 x 3xa^4
This can be hard to answer but there are three rule. 1st you keep the base which is a. 2nd is add the exponents which are 4 and 3. 3rd is multiply the coefficient which is 6 and 3. and this answer would be 18xa^7.

Please define the following terms:
mercantilism, import, export, enumerated article, legislature, indentured servant, Navigation Acts, Dominion of New England, English Bill of Rights.
Answer:
Mercantilism is an economic policy that is designed to maximize the exports and minimize the imports for an economy. It promotes imperialism, tariffs and subsidies on traded goods to achieve that goal
Import is to bring in (merchandise, commodities, workers, etc.) from a foreign country for use, sale, processing, reexport, or services.
Export is to ship (commodities) to other countries or places for sale, exchange, etc.
enumerated article is under the English navigation Acts, those commodities that could be shipped only to England or other English colonies; originally included sugar, tobacco, cotton, and indigo.
legislature is a deliberative body of persons, usually elective, who are empowered to make, change, or repeal the laws of a country or state; the branch of government having the power to make laws, as distinguished from the executive and judicial branches of government.
An indentured servant or indentured laborer is an employee (indenturee) within a system of unfree labor who is bound by a signed or forced contract (indenture) to work without pay for the owner of the indenture for a period of time
The Navigation Acts, or more broadly the Acts of Trade and Navigation, was a long series of English laws that developed, promoted, and regulated English ships, shipping, trade, and commerce between other countries and with its own colonies.
The Dominion of New England in America was an administrative union of English colonies covering New England and the Mid-Atlantic Colonies.
The English Bill of Rights was an act signed into law in 1689 by William III and Mary II, who became co-rulers in England after the overthrow of King James II. The bill outlined specific constitutional and civil rights and ultimately gave Parliament power over the monarchy

I need in form of y=mx+b Thank you!
Answer:
y = -2x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let equation of the line be y = mx + b
Since the line is perpendicular to y = 1/2x - 10,
product of the gradient of both lines = -1
therefore,
1/2 x m = -1
m = -2
since it passes through (4, -5),
sub (4, -5):
-5 = -2(4) + b
b = 3
therefore, equation of the line is y = -2x + 3
Abby takes a ride-sharing service to ride from her home to the mall. The ride-sharing service charges $1.75 per mile plus a one-time charge of $5.00.
Which equation can be used to find y, the total cost of the ride, given x represents the number of miles of the ride?
(A.) y=1.75x−5
(B.) y=1.75(x+5)
(C.) y = 1.75x + 5
(D.) y = 5x + 1.75
Answer:
c)
Step-by-step explanation:
$5.00 is a one time charge but $1.75 is per mile and x represents the number of miles.
The equation can be used to find y is option (C.) y = 1.75x + 5
Given that,
The ride-sharing service charges $1.75 per mile plus a one-time charge of $5.00.Equation:Here we present the equation for determining the y.
y=1.75(x+5)
Therefore, the option c is correct.

A truck travels 2,400 miles in 60 hours, going the same distance each hour.
How many miles does the truck travel each hour?
A. 3 miles
B. 60 miles
C. 6 miles
D. 40 miles
The truck travels D) 40 miles per hour
What is the speed of an object?Speed of an object is given by the distance travelled divided by time taken to traverse that distance , S = Distance/ time
Given here, distance = 2,400 miles and time taken= 60 hours
therefore speed = 2400/60
= 40 miles per hour
Hence, the truck travels 40 miles every hour.
