Height of the flagpole = x
distance from flagpole to the mirror = 48 ft
height of Michele = 5 ft
distance from Michele to the mirror = 12 ft
Now, set the proportion.
x/48 = 5/12
48 * x/48 = 5/12 * 48
x = 240/12
x = 20
So, the height of the flagpole is 20 ft.

Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the original number of bushes in garden A
Let x-9 = the original number of bushes in garden B
x-9-3=x-12 = bushes in garden B after transplanting 3
x+3 = bushes in garden A after transplanting 3
x+3=1.5(x-12)
x+3=1.5x-18
0.5x=21
x=42
There were 42 current bushes in garden A
