Get the x variable on one side and the numbers another side.
9/10(x + 2/3) = 4 1/2
Distribute the 9/10 across the x and 2/3.
(9/10)x + 18/30 = 4 1/2
Simplify 18/30 to make our life easier.
(9/10)x + 3/5 = 4 1/2
Subtract 3/5 from each side of the equation.
(9/10)x = 3 9/10
Divide both sides by 9/10.
x = 4 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
We use

Now we have

5x + 2x + 3x = 180
10x = 180
x = 18

The distance between the flagpole and the building is the number of feet between them
The building is 162 feet from the flagpole
<h3>How to determine the distance</h3>
The given parameters are:
- Flagpole = 40 feet
- Building Shadow = 324 feet
The flagpole's shadow is 50% longer than the flagpole.
So, the length (l) of the flagpole's shadow is:


The length of the building's shadow (d) is then calculated as:

Express as fraction


Solve for d


The distance (x) of the building from the flagpole is then calculated as:


Hence, the building is 162 feet from the flagpole

Driving 70 miles per hour.
Slow your speed means decrease in speed=
70+(-15)=70-15=55 miles/ hr
And then return to speed of 70 miles/hr means
add 15 miles to the speed.
We get
70+(-15)+15 =70 miles / hr
