since brians shadow is 2/3rds his height
4 / 6 is 2 /3
20 / 30 is 2 / 3 too so flag pole must be 30 feet tall
I do believe you are right
Answer:
Perimeter of the rectangle = 8 x +4
Length of the rectangle = 12 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width of the rectangle as 'x' units.
So, length of the rectangle is 2 more than 3 x.
We can set up expression for length as 3 x+2.
Now, perimeter is sum of all side lengths of the rectangle.
So, perimeter = x+x+3 x+2 +3 x+2
Combine like terms,
Perimeter = 8 x+4
Now, it is given perimeter is 36cm
So,
8 x+4=36
Subtract both sides 4
8 x=32
Divide both sides by 8
x=4
So, width of the rectangle =4
Length =3(4) +2=14
I believe the most logical answer would be is to divide so us the kcf method keep change flip so 5 stays the same then change division into multiplication then flip the fraction 1/3 into 3/1 so now we have 5 times 3 is 15
