Viefleur [7K]

Answer:\frac{253}{44}

Step-by-step explanation:

ignore the "at the instant the man is 30 feet away" part, set it as X and the man's shadow as Y.

Similar triangles so we can do \frac{50}{x+y}  = \frac{6}{y}.

Solve for it we get 44y = 6x

Differentiate relative to time t, we get 44y' = 6x'.

change in x (x') is equal to 5. And we get the answer y' = \frac{33}{44}.

the \frac{33}{44} ft/sec is the rate of which the length of the shadow is changing. add 5 to it for the rate of the tip of his shadow moving away from the tower.

How to solve for x 15 + 8x = 45 + 6x
Reil [10]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

15+8x=45+6x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8x+15=6x+45

Step 2: Subtract 6x from both sides.

8x+15−6x=6x+45−6x

2x+15=45

Step 3: Subtract 15 from both sides.

2x+15−15=45−15

2x=30

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

30

2

x=15

Answer:

x=15
