Answer:
the cell phone tower is 488 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
change 12 in = 1ft
4ft x ft
------------------- = ----------------
1ft shadow 122 ft shadow
using cross products
4 * 122 = 1 * x
488 = x
As fraction it would be 6/30 reduced 1/5 and as percentage 20% so 20% of the students were off.<span />
-7x - 2y = 19
4x + y = -12
Set y equal to each other (opposite signs are fine and you could also set x equal instead of y)
-7x - 2y = 19
8x + 2y = -76
Add equations together
x = -52
Plug x value into an equation
4(-52) + y = -12
Solve for y
-208 + y = -12
y = 196
Hope this helps! ;)
X= 3/2 you multiply the inverse (9/8) and then you probably know what to do
