Find the length of Samson's shadow
The question can be illustrated with the attached figure where Samson's shadow is represented with x.
To solve for x, we make use of the following equivalent ratios:
![18.75 : 120 = 6.25 : x](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=18.75%20%3A%20120%20%3D%206.25%20%3A%20x)
Convert to fraction
![\frac{18.75}{120} = \frac{6.25}{x}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B18.75%7D%7B120%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B6.25%7D%7Bx%7D)
Cross Multiply
![18.75 * x = 120 * 6.25](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=18.75%20%2A%20x%20%3D%20120%20%2A%206.25)
![18.75 * x = 750](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=18.75%20%2A%20x%20%3D%20750)
Make x the subject
![x =\frac{750}{18.75}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%20%3D%5Cfrac%7B750%7D%7B18.75%7D)
![x =40](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%20%3D40)
<em>Hence, Samson's shadow is 40ft</em>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 2y = 8 -----------(I)
x - 2y = -4 -----------(II)
Add equation (I) & (II) and thus y will be eliminated and we can get the value of 'x'
(I) x + 2y = 8
(II) <u>x - 2y = -4</u><u> </u>{Now add}
2x = 4
x = 4/2
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 in equation (I)
2 + 2y = 8
2y = 8 - 2
2y = 6
y = 6/2
y = 3
