Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Brian Height = 6 feet

Brian Shadow Height = 4 foot

Flag Shadow Height = 20 foot

Flag Height = Unknown ??

So we can use cross multiplication

6/4 = x/20

6×20/4 = x

6×20 =120

120÷4 = 30

So x= 30, which is the Flag Height

I wish that I helped you with this.

As per linear equation, the  height of the flag pole is 30 feet.

<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>

A linear equation is an equation that has one or multiple variables with the highest power of the variable is 1.

Given, Brian is 6 feet tall and cast a 4 feet shadow.

Therefore, the ratio of Brain and it's shadow is

= 6/4

= 1.5

A flag pole cast a 20 foot shadow.

Therefore, the height of the flag pole is

= 20 × 1.5 feet

= 30 feet.

Jack wants to share his candy with friends. Right now he has 4 1/3 pieces of chocolate. How many friends can he give 1/2 a candy
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

8 Friends

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert 4 1/3 to a mixed fraction

4 1/3 --> 13/3

Then divide by 1/2 to find how many friends per 1/2 candy bar with 13/3 candy bars

(13/3)/(1/2)

=(13*2)/(3*1)

=26/3

8.66667

Since you can't have 0.66667 of a person you get 8 friends to give candy to
