The length of an object's shadow is directly proportional to the height of the object. If a 40 foot tall tree casts a 16 foot shadow, identify the constant of variation and write an equation to represent the relationship

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = Object length

Leb b = Shadow's length

40a:16b

a = 16b/40

a = 0.4b

The constant of the variation and the equation is

Let a = Object length

Leb b = Shadow's length

40a:16b

Given that,

  • There is a 40 foot tall tree casts a 16 foot shadow.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

40a : 16b

So here

[tex]a = 16b \div 40[/tex]

= 0.4b
