Set it up as a ratio:
mans shadow over mans height (4/6 ) equals flag pole shadow over flag pole height (15/x)
set them to equal each other:
4/6 = 15/x
cross multiply: 4*x =4x, 15*6 = 90
so you have 4x = 90
now divide both sides by 5 to solve for x, which is the height of the flag pole:
x = 90 / 4 = 22.5 feet tall
Answer:
30 basketballs
Step-by-step explanation:
one layer would be 3 x 2 = 6
- to find how much you would need to cover the bottom of the locker, you would use the numbers 3 and 2, then multiply them and you get 6. You would need 6 basketballs to cover the bottom of the locker. That would be your first layer
5 layers would be 6 x 5 = 30
- So the bottom would be filled with 6 basketballs. Now since the locker is 5 feet high multiply 6 x 5 and that would get you your total of basketballs
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Replace the variables with numbers.
1+7=8
Answer:
9 + 4x = 101
Step-by-step explanation:
9 + 4x = 101 Equation
( +9 - 9 ) + 4x = ( 101 - 9 ) Subract 9 on both sides
4x = 92 Simplify
x = 23 Divide 4 on both sides

Let x = second angle
let x + 10 = first angle
let 2( (x) + (x+10) ) = third angle.
Since the interior of a triangle equals 180° then,






Inputting the value of x gives us each angle.
second angle = 25°
first angle = x + 10 = 25 + 10 = 35°
third angle = 2( (x) + (x+10) ) = 2( (25) + (25+10) )
= 110°
