Answer:

The tall of the flag pole is 51 ft answer (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The tall of the man = 6 ft

∵ The his shadow = 10 ft

∵ The shadow of the flag pole = 85 ft

∵ Tall of the man/tall of the flag = shadow of the man/shadow

   of the flag

∴ 6/x = 10/85 ⇒ where x is the tall of the flag

∴ x = (6 × 85) ÷ 10 = 510 ÷ 10 = 51 ft

∴ The tall of the flag pole is 51 ft

write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point. y-4=5/2(x+3) ; (-7
faltersainse [42]
The gradient of the perpendicular line would be the negative reciprocal of the original line. Therefore the gradient of the perpendicular line would be -2/5x.
Since we know y=mx+c, ∴y=-2/5x+c. Sub in the x and y values of the given point and we get that c=26/5.

The perpendicular equation would be y=-2/5x+26/5.
I hope I got this right.

Pls, can someone answer this, Explain, using words and numbers, how to subtract 7x - ( 6x + 13). Remember to include the solutio
Hitman42 [59]
So first you distribute the negative to the 6x and 13 which will flip the sign of both of them to -6x and -13 so take away the parentheses and the equation is now 7x-6x-13. You combine the x’s and you get 1x-13 or x-13
