Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Set it up as a ratio:
mans shadow over mans height (4/6 ) equals flag pole shadow over flag pole height (15/x)
set them to equal each other:
4/6 = 15/x
cross multiply: 4*x =4x, 15*6 = 90
so you have 4x = 90
now divide both sides by 5 to solve for x, which is the height of the flag pole:
x = 90 / 4 = 22.5 feet tall
Let the equation be 1/2x=48-10
where x is the dad's weight
1/2x=48-10
1/2x=38
x=76 ( i divided both sides by 1/2)
if you are in debt for -15 dollars in your bank account you add 10 dollars then you are-5 dollars in your bank account
Answer:
cube root of -215 or -5.9
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this can't be a perfect cube the answer would be cube root of -215 or you find the closest perfect cubes which would be -5 and -6
-5cubed is -125 and -6cubed is -216 and -215 is closer to -216 the number approximately would be -5.9
Hope this helps :)
