The answer to the question
you would cross multiply meaning 6(2x+2)=11(x-4) Then you distribute 6 so it would be 12x+12=11x-44 then you have to move the constant and the variable so 12x-11x= -44-12 so then the answer would be x = -56
Answer:
The tree is 28 feet tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that:
Height of flag pole = 8 feet
Shadow of flag pole = 6 feet
Ratio of height to shadow = 8 : 6
Shadow of nearby tree = 21 feet
Height of nearby tree = x
Ratio of height to shadow = x : 21
8 : 6 :: x : 21
Product of means = Product of extremes
6x = 8*21
6x = 168
Dividing both sides by 6

Therefore,
The tree is 28 feet tall.
