1. Combine like terms
7x+1= x+4

2. Get all of your variable to one side (subtract one x from both sides)
6x+1 = 4

3. Subtract one from both sides
6x = 3

4. Divide both sides by 6 to isolate the variable
x = 3/6

5. Simplify your fraction, and you get the answer...
x=1/2

If you need any further explanation, just let me know :)

Holding a ruler upright at arm’s distance (24 in.), Ronnie aligned the bottom of the ruler with a mark on the utility pole that

Answer:

10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Drawing obviously not to scale but... Red segment is the ruler, at least the part between 5 and 6 inches, 1 inch long. Brown segment is the pole, ground to the top. Leftmost point is the eye, green line is the horizontal. The triangles are similar (AAA, the vertical lines are parallel), the ratio of the side is the same as the ratio of the heights. The height of the larger triangle (measured across the green line is

$40 yd \times 3\frac{ft}{yd} \times 12\frac{in}{ft}= 1440''$ .

Ratio of the height is then $1440\div24 = 60$ .

At this point the height of the pole is 60 times the length of the measure on the ruler, or 60 inches, that is 5 feet. Add the 5 feet the pole was starting from, it's 10 feet.
