Answer
When you subtract a negative number, it is the same as addition.
Therefore if you subtract a negative number from a positive number, the result will be positive.

Answer: The flagpole is 12.1 feet high.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this by using a ratio:
Actual height to shadow length. The fractions must have the same equivalent values.
5.5/10 = x/22 Cross multiply the numerator on the left times the denominator on the right, and the denominator on the left by the numerator on the right:
5.5(22) = 10x
121 = 10x Divide both sides by 10. (10s "cancel" on the right)
12.1 = x
The flagpole is 12.1 feet high.
X = -6.4
First, you would subtract 8 on both sides:
-2.5x + 8 - 8 = 24 - 8
The 8 cancels out on the left side of the equation, and 24 - 8 = 16
Next, divide both sides by -2.5, to get rid of the number that is multiplying by x.
-2.5x/-2.5 = 16/-2.5
= x = -6.4
*Remeber, when dividing a negative by a positive, the answer is negative. In this case, 6.4 is negative.
