A person stands 6 feet tall. The distance from the top of their head to the end of their shadow on the ground is 10 feet. How long is their shadow? Round to the nearest
tenths where necessary.

It's quite simple and there is no need for rounding, the answer should be 8ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's why,

This problem can be solved with the Pythagorean Theorem, since in draws a triangle.

The picture should explain it,  let's double check:

6^2+8^2=10^2

36+64=100

Looks like it checks out

if x decreases by 4 then y increases by 10

step-by-step explanation:

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.
