Answer: 51 feet
Since we know George's height, the length of George's shadow, and the length of the flagpole's shadow we have all the information we need
Now we can set up a relationship between George and the flagpole:
6 represents George's height
10 represents the length of George's shadow
x is the unknown height of the flagpole
85 is the length of the flagpole's shadow
Now you solve for x:
So, the height of the flagpole is 51 feet
There both have even numbers being add to them
Answer:
Both sides are equal, true for all 'b'
Step-by-step explanation:
Add similar elements: b + 0.17b = 1.17b
1.17b = 1.17b
Multiply both sides by 100
1.17b * 100 = 1.17b * 100
Refine
117b = 177b
Subtract 117b from both sides
117b - 117b = 117b - 117b
Refine
0 = 0
Both sides are equal, true for all 'b'
