Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5y + x = 25
Subtract x from both sides when x = 5
5y + x - x = 25 - x
5y = 20
5y/5 = 20/5
=4
Y=4
Honestly the answer might be divide by 5. It may not be right tho. Sorry if It is wrong.
The answer is C, hope this helps!
Make each known side into a ratio like so...
75/6
(Because 75 is the shadow casted by the building, and 6 is the shadow casted by sarah)
and 50/x
(50 is how tall the building is and sarah's height is what needs to be found)
Therefore,
75 50
---- -----
6 x
Do cross products;
50 x 6 = 75 x X
300 = 75x
Divide by 75
x = 4ft
I think it would just be 8 or 8.00
