2) 1) A 6 ft tall lawn ornament standing next to a baby elephant casts a 18 ft shadow. If the baby elephant casts a shadow that is 12 ft long, then how tall is it?​

4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion from lawn ornament to its shadow = 6ft : 18ft = 1 : 3

Proportion from baby elephant to its shadow = x : 12ft

These proportions have to be equal, because if it is the same time of day, the different object's shadows will have the same proportions.

In order to solve this problem, we need to cross multiply. (Attached image)  

So, 3x = 12.

By solving this equation, we find that x = 4

The height of the baby elephant is 4 feet.

Note- It would mean the world to me if you could mark me brainliest!

let m = monomial

let t = trinomial

so, m times t = t.

monomial times a trinomial = another trinomial.

8+10

step-by-step explanation:

you multiply 4 by 2 and 5 by 2
