3 = -(-y + 6)
First, simplify brackets. / Your problem should look like: 3 = y - 6
Second, add 6 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 3 + 6 = y
Third, simplify 3 + 6 to 9. / Your problem should look like: 9 = y
Fourth, switch sides. / Your problem should look like: y = 9
The answer is D) 9.
Assume if it is cloudy, then you are outside.
The ratio of height : shadow =44/1313
Therefore height of the tree,x=3434*(44/1313)
=115.08 ft
If you meant 13 and 34 as the length of shadows respectively, then also x=115.08 ft
