Answer: $2.67 per person
Step-by-step explanation: Well hello again, so the question said two of his friends had an emergency now there are three people left going to New York including Eric himself. So, the equation is 8 ÷ 3 = ?. Now we solve the equation 8 ÷ 3 = ? which is $2.67.
The first thing we are going to do is draw a diagram of the situation to help us to solve the situation.
We an draw tow similar triangle between the length of the shadows and the height of the stick and the pole.
Since <span>meter stick has a length of 1 meter, the height of our smaller triangle is 1 meter. Let </span>

be height of of the pole. Since both triangles are similiar we can establish a proportion between their corresponding sides and solve for

:



We can conclude that the pole is
4.04 meters tall.
Multiply by z to get
wz = xy
divide by x
y = wz/x
