The word in the problem that indicates is a negative number is “descend”
We are given the following equation and want to find the possible values of x
Subtract both sides by 3x
Now, we have this weird equation. Since -15 is NOT equal 15 and there is no other way we could have solved for x, there is no real solution to the given equation.
In other words, there is no value of x that makes the equation true.
Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!

I thought this would be simple, as I'm familiar with algebra and not really "The constant of proportionality," but I will do my best.
So this said "Constant of proportionality," is referring to basically the answers for the equation when X equals certain numbers.
Make a table of different answers when you plug in X and you get the 'Constant of proportionality.'
y = 2.5x + 3
y = 2.5(1) + 3
y = 2.5 + 3
y = 5.5
Since we plugged in 1 for X and got 5.5 for Y, our input and output is (1, 5.5)
Replace X for a different value, and you will get a bunch of different numbers that will in essence be your function inputs and outputs. Make a table of these and you have your answer.
EXAMPLE -
-= x =- -= y =-
-= 1 =- -= 5.5 =-
-= 2 =- -= 8 =-
-= 3 =- -= 11.5 =-
-= 4 =- -= 13 =-
So there you have it. I hope this helps! If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask.
Answer:
39 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
take the tree as AB , the distance between the man and the tree as BC, the distance between the man and the tip of the shadow CD and the point intersecting the hypotenuse CE
since CE parallel to AB we can BPT
CE/AB = CD/BD
6/32= CD/48
CD = 9 feet
since CD is feet
BC is 48-9 = 39 feet
