find the ratio between the shadow's
12.2/3.5 = 3.4857
now multiply the known height by that
6 x 3.4857 = 20.914 feet round off answer as necessary

To simplify the fraction, divide the numerator / denominator ( cancel ) by the highest common factor of 25 and 30, that is 5
=
in simplest form
Answer:
Yes, see the explanation.
Roots:
x =
, or x= -10
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic fomrual in standard form is;
ax^(2) + bx + c = 0
The given equation:
4x^2 = -9x - 4
Maniplate the equation using inverse operations
4x^2 = -9x - 4
-4x^2 -4x^2
0 = -4x^2 - 9x - 4
Yes, this is a quadratic equation, because it fits the requirement of being able to be written in standard form.
Now find its roots:
-4x^2 -9x - 4 = 0
remember,
x = 
Substitute in the given values
x= 
Simplify,
x = 
x = 
x = 
or
x= -10
Steps to solve:
10/r - 7 - 6b when r = 5 and b = -6
~Substitute
10/5 - 7 - 6(6)
~Simplify
5 - 7 + 36
~Subtract
-2 + 36
~Add
34
Best of Luck!
