Set up a proportion. 6/10 = 9/x. cross multiply so x times 6 = 6x. And 10 times 9 = 90. so 6x=90. Then 90 and 6x divided by 6. which gets you x=15. The 9 ft tall elephant will cast a 15 ft shadow.
Answer:
A, x>3
Step-by-step explanation:
You solve the equation as normal by crossing out both sides and getting what equals to x, but since you divided by a negative the sign flips and you are left with your answer. Hope this helps!
Sense the two triangles are congruent you would use CPCTC.
The answer to this is B. y=-x-5.
