A person named Marty Firarii who is 5'10" casts a shadow that is 40 inches long. At the same time of day, a building casts a shadow that is 830 feet long. A taxi cab pulls up to Marty and a gameshow host pops out and says they will give Marty $100,000 if he can correctly figure out the height of the building. Help Marty win the money, and maybe he'll buy you a soda. The building is how many feet tall?

Ms. Reece's 5th grade class wants to figure out how tall the school flagpole is. On a sunny day, the class goes outside and measures that the shadow of the flagpole is about 23 feet, 3 inches long. At the same time, Juan's shadow is 5 feet, 2 inches long. Juan is 4 feet, 6 inches tall. Determine the (approximate) height of the flagpole using a method that the children in Ms. Reece's class could find plausible. Express your answer in feet and inches. The children know about multiplication and division, but they don't know any more advanced mathematics, such as setting up proportions, so you can't use proportions to do this.

Baldur is going to make a box, without a lid, from a sheet that is 5 cm wide and 10 cm long, see the picture below (the proportions in the picture are not correct). Note that the box should be open at the top. Baldur is going to make the box by cutting out a square from the four corners and then folding up the sides. Call the side lengths of the squares that Baldur cuts out x. 5 сm 10 сm a) Set up an equation for the volume of the box as a function of x, specify what value x can take (in what interval can x lie)? b) If Baldur wants to maximize the volume of the box, what is the side length of the squares that Baldur is to cut out, i.e. what is the value of x?
Hi, I can’t understand how to solve this question. I think we are supposed to use similarity, but I don’t understand how that would work. Thank you.
