Answer:
6+n/8=2
Step-by-step explanation:
* More Than = (+) or in some cases (>)
* Quotient of a (#) = Any letter that represents a number, so in this case "n", because we do not know that number yet. We divide this with "8" because it says "and 8".
* Equal = <---
Answer:
the common ration is -0.4. Three terms: 2.56,-1.024, and 0.4096
Step-by-step explanation:
You just keep on multypling the terms by -0.5 ,and you get.
Smaller Number = X
5x - 23 = Larger Number
X + (5x - 23) = 61
6x - 23 = 61
6x = 84
X = 14
Answer:
12 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw a diagram (see picture below). The tree and its shadow is one triangle, the man and its shadow is another triangle. We assume both are right triangles because people and trees stand vertical.
Create a proportion to solve. Put the missing value in a numerator.
Tree height / Tree shadow = Man height / Man shadow

Solve using cross multiplication. Multiply x by 4. Multiply 6 by 8.
4x = 48 Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x.
x = 12 Height of tree
The tree is 12 feet tall.
