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.

Answer: C

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = 26.2 - 0.1x

f(100) = 26.2 - 0.1(100)

         = 26.2 = 10.0

         = 16.2

f(5-) = 26.2 - 0.1(50)

       = 26.2 - 5.0

       = 21.2

******************************************************

Answer: D

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

f(x) = 2|x - 3| + 1

2 units right: f(x) = 2|x - (3 + 2)| + 1

                           = 2|x - 5| + 1
