The square root of 169 is 13 and 170 is 13.03
Given :
A 136 foot tall cell phone tower casts a 79.9 foot shadow.
To Find :
The shadow length for a nearby 40 foot telephone pole .
Solution :
We know , the ratio of height and shadow , will be same for every object .
Let , length of shadow of pole is x .
So ,

Therefore , the length of shadow of tower is 23.5 foot .
Hence , this is the required solution .
X(x + 3) + 34 = (x + 5)(x + 2)
First, expand to remove parentheses.
Second, add '2x + 5x' to get '7x'.
Third, cancel out '

' on both sides.
Fourth, subtract '3x' from both sides.
Fifth, subtract '7x - 3x' to get '4x'.
Sixth, subtract '10' from both sides.
Seventh, subtract '34 - 10' to get '24'.
Eighth, divide both sides by '4', leaving the 'x' by itself.
Ninth, since '24 ÷ 4 = 6', simplify the fraction to '6'.
Tenth, switch your sides to get the answer.

Answer:
x = 6
Question is using standard formula ax+by=c to find the slope by converting into slope intercept form y=mx+b
so we also need to convert ax+by=c into y=mx+b as shown below:



divide both sides by

Now compare it with y=mx+b, we get

So using values of a and b, we can find the slope
compare given equation -5x+2y=15 with ax+by=c, we get:
a=-5, b=2
Now plug both into above formula



Now matching these details with given choices we find that THIRD choice is the final answer.
