If you’re solving for X
Answer: The height of the building is 6.49 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be translated to:
"A building projects a 7.5 m shadow, while a tree with a height of 1.6 m projects a shadow of 1.85 m.
Which is the height of the building?"
We can conclude that the ratio between the projected shadow is and the actual height is constant for both objects, this means that if H is the height of the building, we need to have:
(height of the building)/(shadow of the building) = (height of the tree)/(shadow of the tree)
H/7.5m = 1.6m/1.85m
H = (1.6m/1.85m)*7.5m = 6.49m
The height of the building is 6.49 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in standard form is
Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )
given
y + 6 = (x - 4)
Multiply through by 2 to eliminate the fraction
2y + 12 = 3(x - 4) ← distribute
2y + 12 = 3x - 12 ( subtract 2y from both sides )
12 = 3x - 2y - 12 ( add 12 to both sides )
24 = 3x - 2y, that is
3x - 2y = 24 ← in standard form
