Given:
five times a number = 5x
decreased by 8 = 5x - 8
is at most 10 = maximum is 10 so less than or equal to 10
more than twice the number = greater than 2x.

2x < 5x - 8 <u><</u> 10

5x - 8 <u><</u> 10
5x - 8 > 2x

****

5x - 8    <u><</u> 10      if x = 3.60 then 2x < 5x-8 <u>< </u>10
     + 8      +8                              2(3.6)  < 5(3.6) - 8 <u><</u> 10
5x         <u><</u>  18                                7.2    < 10 <u><</u> 10
÷5              ÷5
        x   <u><</u>  3.60

5x - 8     > 2x                  x > 2.67; if x = 3
 
   +8             + 8                        2x < 5x - 8 <u>< </u>10
5x          > 2x + 8                        2(3) < 5(3) - 8 <u>< </u>10
-2x           -2x                                 6 < 7 <u>< </u>10
3x          >         8
÷3                    ÷3  
x             >  2.67

A flagpole casts a shadow 16.60 meters long Tim stands at a distance of 12.45 meters from the base of the flagpole such that the
coldgirl [10]
This problem is solely on right triangles, wherein the Pythagorean theorem may be applied. We must first find the angle of elevation of the flagpole using Tim's height and the difference between the shadow of the flagpole and Tim's distance from the flagpole. Therefore tan a = 1.65/(16.6-12.5) where a=21.68 degrees. We use this angle to determine the height of the flagpole. tan 21.68 = x/ 16.6 where x=height of flagpole=6.6 meters.
