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

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (3/2)ˣ

g(x) = (2/3)ˣ

These are examples of exponential equations:

y = a bˣ

If b > 1, the equation is exponential growth.

If 0 < b < 1, the equation is exponential decay.

So f(x) is an example of exponential growth, and g(x) is an example of exponential decay.

Also, 2/3 is the inverse of 3/2, so:

g(x) = (3/2)^(-x)

So more specifically, f(x) and g(x) are reflections of each other across the y-axis.
