Answer:

38.57 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Height of monument, h = 300ft

Shadow of monument, s = 210 ft

Shadow of tree, s = 27ft

Height of tree, = x

Using the relation :

Height / shadow = height / shadow

Monument = tree

300 / 210 = h / 27

Cross multiply

300 * 27 = 210 * h

8100 = 210h

h = 8100 / 210

h = 38.57 feets

Solve the absolute value inequality.<br><br> |2x - 3| &gt; 7
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Hi!

<u><em>NOTE: When solving absolute value inequalities, > or ≥ means OR, and < and ≤ means AND.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

|2x - 3| > 7

Since the absolute value is isolated, we can now solve.

First, remove absolute value signs, then solve for x.

2x - 3 > 7

2x > 10

x > 5

Now, we have to solve again, but this time we flip the inequality sign and switch positive 7 to a negative 7, like so:

2x - 3 < -7

2x < -4

x < -2

Now, as stated above, since it's a greater than symbol it means OR.

<u><em>x > 5 OR x < -2</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>
