Answer:

5.8 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate this is given as:

Height/ Shadow

Shadow of the pole = 25.5 m

Height of the pole = x m

Tim's shadow = Height of the pole - Tim's distance

25.5 m - 15.4 m = 10.1 m

Tim's height = 2.3 m

Hence:

x/25.5 = 2.3/10.1

Cross Multiply

10.1x = 25.5 × 2.3

x = 25.5 × 2.3/10.1

x = 5.8069306931 m

Approximately = 5.8m

Hence, the height of the flagpole = 5.8m

Merina is scheduled to make two loan payments to Bradford in the amount of $1,000 each, two months and nine months from now. Mer
Svetach [21]

well, we're assuming all along that Merina owes Bradford $2000, because in the 1st scenario, she was going to pay twice $1000.

on the 2nd scenario, she'll be paying the same $2000 but split 7 months from now and then 7 months later, same 2000 bucks, at which point Bradford applied 8.5% interest.

using those assumptions, since the wording is not quite clear, we can say that Merina is simply paying 2000 bucks plus the 8.5%

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{8.5\% of 2000}}{\left( \cfrac{8.5}{100} \right)2000}\implies 170 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{\stackrel{principal}{2000}~~ + ~~\stackrel{interest}{170}}{2}\implies \stackrel{\textit{two equal payments of}}{1085}
