Well in order to answer this we need to write out the proportions. So the pole is X meters tall but casts a shadow 37 meters long while the statue is 33 cm tall and casts a shadow 83 cm long. So we now proportionate the two heights and the two shadows and we get \frac{x}{33}= \frac{37}{83}. Then we cross multiply and get 83x= 1221and then simplify by dividing 83 from both sides and get x ≈ 14.71m.

Solve 240 = 6z + c for 'c'.<br><br> show steps please
Lunna [17]

There are two ways to find or determine for the value of c. In the first method, we can use addition and subtraction to isolate the variable c from the other variables. In the second method, we can use the transposition of variables to isolate the variable c from the other variables.

So solving for the value of c:

 

<span>Using 1st method: Addition and Subtraction</span>

We are given:

240 = 6 z + c

Simply subtract 6 z on both sides:

240 – 6 z = 6 z + c – 6 z

Cancelling 6 z – 6 z on the right side:

240 – 6 z = c

or

c = 240 – 6 z

 

<span>Using the 2nd method: Transposition</span>

240 = 6 z + c

What we are going to do here is to simply transpose the variable 6 z from the right side to the left side of the equation so that we are left with c alone on the right side. Always remember that when we transpose, the symbol becomes opposite. That is:

240 + (- 6 z) = c

240 – 6 z = c

or

<span>c = 240 – 6 z</span>
