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.

The coefficient of determination is used to: compute correlations for truncated ranges. compare the relative strength of coeffic
kozerog [31]

Answer: compare the relative strength of coefficients.

Step-by-step explanation: The Coefficient of determination usually denoted as R^2 is obtained by taking the squared value of the correlation Coefficient (R). It's value ranges from 0 to 1 and the value obtained gives the proportion of variation in the dependent variable which could be attributed to it's correlation or relationship to th independent variable. With a R^2 value close to 1, this means a large portion of Variation in a variable A could be explained due to changes in variable B while a low value signifies a low variance between the variables. Hence, the Coefficient of determination is used in comparing the relative strength of the Coefficients in other to establish whether a weak or strong relationship exist.
