Shadow of the flagpole=23.5f
Sf=23.5
shadow of gilbert=7.5f
Sg=7.5
height of gilbert=5.5f
hg=5.5
Sf/hf=Sg/hg
23.5/hf=7.5/5.5
23.5*5.5/7.5=hf
(47/2*11/2)/7.5=hf
(517/4)/(30/4)=hf
(517*4)/(4*30)=hf
517/30=hf
17+7/30=hf
17.233.. feet=height of flagpole

Simplify the following expressions. Put your a<br> (3x³-5x² - 7+ 4x4) + (9x4 - 10x² - 5x³ + 3) =
leonid [27]

first we need to get rid of the ( ) so that we can see what the question really says

(3x³-5x² - 7+ 4x4) + (9x4 - 10x² - 5x³ + 3)

= 3x³-5x²-7+4x⁴+9x⁴-10x²-5x³+3

now all we need to do is add up the numbers with the same x's

<em>3x³</em>-5x²-7<u>+4x⁴+9x⁴</u>-10x²<em>-5x³</em>+3

= 13x⁴-2x³-15x²-4
