Answer:
27.2 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up a ratio that represents the problem:
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
Substitute with the dimensions of the 34 foot pole and its 30 foot shadow.
34 : 30
Find the unit rate:
The unit rate is when one number in a ratio is 1.
Let's make the Shadow equal to one by dividing by 30 on both sides.
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
34 : 30
/30 /30
1.13 : 1
Now, let's multiply by 24 on both sides to find the height of the tree.
Multiply:
Object's Height (ft) : Shadow (ft)
1.13 : 1
x24 x24
27.2 : 24
Therefore, the tree is 27.2 feet tall.

Answer:
8x + 1/2 or 8x + 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
-6x + 3 3/4 + 14x - 3.25
u can either convert the fraction to a decimal or convert the decimal into a fraction, i'm going to do the latter
-6x + 3 3/4 + 14x - 3 1/4
rearrange to make it easier, don't need to do this i'm just doing this for the sake of it
-6x + 14x + 3 3/4 - 3 1/4
8x + 2/4, simplify this
8x + 1/2
The decimal way if u want:
-6x + 3 3/4 + 14x - 3.25
-6x + 3.75 + 14x - 3.25
-6x + 14x + 3.75 - 3.25
8x + 0.5
