The answer for your question is (x,y)=(4,9)
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, combine like terms on the left side
4x-5x+9=5x-9
-x+9=5x-9
Subtract 9 on both sides
-x=5x-18
Subtract 5x on both sides
-6x= -18
Divide by -6 on both sides
x=3

Answer:
22 3/4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram seems to show a 6 1/2 ft person casting a 9 ft shadow at the same time a flagpole is casting a 31 1/2 ft shadow. You want the height of the flagpole.
<h3>Proportion</h3>
Shadow lengths are presumed proportional to the height of the object making them. This means ...
h/(31 1/2) = (6 1/2)/9 . . . . . all lengths in feet
Multiplying by 31 1/2, we get ...
h = (31 1/2)(6 1/2)/9 = (819/4)/9 = 91/4
h = 22 3/4 . . . . ft
The flagpole is 22 3/4 feet tall.
