Okay so it is easiest to solve this problem by drawing it out. First draw Eliot and label it 6ft. Then draw the 2 floodlights on either side of him equal distances away and label them both 12 yds high. Label the distance between the floodlights 50yards. Then draw 2 diagonal lines one coming down on each side from Eliot's head to the bottom of the lights. You now have a triangle with one side labeled 6ft, one side labeled 25yds (50/2), and label the other side x. Then make sure you change the units so they are the same. Then use the pythagorean theorem to solve.

Solve for n:<br> 3⁄5 · n = 6
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

n = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for n:

(3 n)/5 = 6

Multiply both sides of (3 n)/5 = 6 by 5/3:

(5×3 n)/(3×5) = 5/3×6

5/3×3/5 = (5×3)/(3×5):

(5×3)/(3×5) n = 5/3×6

5/3×6 = (5×6)/3:

(5×3 n)/(3×5) = (5×6)/3

(5×3 n)/(3×5) = (3×5)/(3×5)×n = n:

n = (5×6)/3

6/3 = (3×2)/3 = 2:

n = 5×2

5×2 = 10:

Answer:  n = 10
