In a jewelry store, rings make up 5\9 of the inventory. Earrings make up 4\15 of the inventory .How many times greater is the ring inventory Than the earring inventory?

2.083 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Rings = 5/9 of inventory

Earrings = 4 /15 of inventory

How many times greater is the ring inventory Than the earring inventory?

To obtain the number of times ring inventory is greater than earring inventory:

Divide the fraction of inventory in ring / fraction of earring inventory

5/9 ÷ 4/15

5/9 * 15/4

= 5*15 / 9*4

= 75 / 36

= 2.083

Hence, ring inventory is 2.083 times more than earring inventory.

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,
