This works when it is not close to noon
put the yardstick next to the pole
measure the shadow of the pole, call it x
measure the letngh of the shadow of the yardstick
measure the height of the yardstick

the ratio of the height of the yardstick to the shadow of the yardstick should be close to the ratio of the height of the pole to the legnth of the shadow of the pole

Find f(x) if it is known that f(x−6)=12x−72.
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

f(x)=12x

Step-by-step explanation

We know that f(x) is our y-coordinate and x is the x-coordinate

Next we should insert x-6 as x in the equation

This is f(x)=12(x-6)-72

But if you look at this that leads to 12x-72 (ignore y-intercept)

That is our first equation  

This means that if you take out -6 from the x

You will get f(x)=12x

(Also do you go to RSM?)

Find the area of the rectangle.
aev [14]

Answer:

69y+23

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle will always be length times width or width times length, doesn't matter which way.

In this case, the width is 3y+1 miles and the length is 23 miles. So, the area is 23(3y+1)=23*3*y+23*1=69*y+23.

So, the area is \boxed{69y+23} and we're done.

Find the sum of three consecutive odd integers where x is the greatest integer
myrzilka [38]
X + (x − 2) + (x − 4) = ? ;  In which
<span>
x + x </span>− 2 + x − 4 ; 

Combine the "like terms" ; 

  x + x + x = 3x ; 

  − 2 − 4  =  −6 ; 

So we have:  "3x  − 6" as the sum. ;
___________________________
The sum of three consecutive odd integers, in which "x" is the greatest integer;  is:  "3x − 6" .
_____________________________________________
Note:  The three consecutive odd integers, from least to greatest, are:

"(x − 4)" , "(x − 2)" , and "x" .

The sum is:  "(3x  − 6)<span>" .
</span>_____________________________________________
Note:  "(3x  − 6)" factors into:  " 3(x −2)" .

Note that:  " (x − 2) " is the second integer.
______________________________________________
So the sum total, which is:  "(3x  −  6)" ;  is 3 (three) times the value of the second integer; that is, "3 (x − 2)" .
