Answer:
y=3x-9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A. 2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x + 10 = 5x - 8 (Given)
10 = 8x - 8 (Added 3x on both sides)
18 = 8x (Added 8 on both sides)
2.25 = x (Divided 8 on both sides)
My shadow would be 7 feet tall.
Since I am standing next to the fence, then whatever difference its actual height and its shadow has, will be the same difference of my shadow to my actual height.
fence: Actual height - 4 ft ; Shadow height - 5 ft; difference - 1 ft
me : Actual height - 6 ft : Shadow height - ? ; difference - 1ft
Shadow Height - Actual Height = 1 ft
Sh - 6ft = 1ft
Sh = 1ft + 6ft
Sh = 7ft
Make it into y = mx + b
2y = -3x + 6
Divide by 2
Y = -3/2x + 3
The slope is -3/2
