Answer:
x= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
5x + -4 = 7x + 4
Solving
-4 + 5x = 4 + 7x
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-7x' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 5x + -7x = 4 + 7x + -7x
Combine like terms: 5x + -7x = -2x
-4 + -2x = 4 + 7x + -7x
Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0
-4 + -2x = 4 + 0
-4 + -2x = 4
Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 4 + -2x = 4 + 4
Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + -2x = 4 + 4
-2x = 4 + 4
Combine like terms: 4 + 4 = 8
-2x = 8
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -4
Simplifying
x = -4

5(m-3)≥7m-2.4
5m-15≥7m-2.4
2m≤-12.6
m≤-6.1
My shadow would be 7 feet tall.
Since I am standing next to the fence, then whatever difference its actual height and its shadow has, will be the same difference of my shadow to my actual height.
fence: Actual height - 4 ft ; Shadow height - 5 ft; difference - 1 ft
me : Actual height - 6 ft : Shadow height - ? ; difference - 1ft
Shadow Height - Actual Height = 1 ft
Sh - 6ft = 1ft
Sh = 1ft + 6ft
Sh = 7ft
