A flagpole casts a shadow of 25.5 meters long. Tim stands at a distance of 15.4 meters from the base of the flagpole, such that the end of Tim's shadow meets the end of the flagpole's shadow. If Tim is 2.3 meters tall, determine and state the height of the flagpole to the nearest tenth of a meter.
Answer:
5.8 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to calculate this is given as:
Height/ Shadow
Shadow of the pole = 25.5 m
Height of the pole = x m
Tim's shadow = Height of the pole - Tim's distance
25.5 m - 15.4 m = 10.1 m
Tim's height = 2.3 m
Hence:
x/25.5 = 2.3/10.1
Cross Multiply
10.1x = 25.5 × 2.3
x = 25.5 × 2.3/10.1
x = 5.8069306931 m
Approximately = 5.8m
Hence, the height of the flagpole = 5.8m

All of Algebra is based on a few simple rules:
adding 0 doesn't change anythingmultiplying by 1 doesn't change anythingdoing the same thing to both sides of an equation doesn't change the values of the variablesanything can be substituted for its equalWhen we solve equations by substitution, we make use of these facts.

About Substitution
Generally, substitution in equation solving is done for the purpose of eliminating a variable from the equation. That usually means you want to write an expression for one variable in terms of other variables.
Finding the Expression to Substitute
In this set of equations, the variables are x and y. We can substitute for y an expression involving x, or we can substitute for x an expression involving y. These equations are written in such a way that either method works as well as the other.
Let's choose to substitute for y. This means we need an equation of the form ...
y = <some expression involving x>
The first equation makes it easy to get that. If we add y (to both sides, see rule 3 above), we get ...
5x -y +y = 4 +y
5x = 4 + y . . . . . . . . . simplified
Subtracting 4 (from both sides) gets us the form we want.
5x -4 = 4 -4 + y
5x -4 = y . . . . . . by rule 4 above, we can use (5x-4) anyplace you see y
Using the Expression to Substitute
Now, we have an expression for y that we can use in the second equation. There, y is multiplied by 4, so we need to be sure to multiply the whole expression by 4:
-x + 4(5x -4) = 3 . . . . . . substituted for y in the second equation
-x +20x -16 = 3 . . . . . use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses
19x -16 = 3 . . . . . . collect terms
This has a constant (-16) where we don't want it, so we can add 16 (to both sides) to get rid of it.
19x -16 +16 = 3 +16
19x = 19 . . . . simplify
Now, we can divide by 19 (to both sides) to get x by itself.
(19x)/19 = 19/19
x = 1 . . . . almost done; we still need to find y
Finishing Up
Using the equation for y that we used for substitution, we can find y from our value of x.
y = 5x -4 = 5×1 -4 = 5-4
y = 1
So, the solution is x = 1, y = 1, or (x, y) = (1, 1).
_____
Additional comment
In this set of equations, both variables (x and y) appear with coefficients of 1 (actually, -1). This makes it easy to solve for an expression that can be substituted for the variable. In systems of equations that you want to solve by substitution, it usually works well to start by looking for a variable with a coefficient of 1 (or -1). Use that to write the substitution expression as we did here.
__
Alternate Solution
If you use a variable with a coefficient other than 1 to write the substitution expression, you end up with fractions. That's OK if you're comfortable with arithmetic using fractions. It generally requires more care.
For example, we could solve the first equation for x:
x = (4 +y)/5
Substituting that into the second equation gives ...
-(4 +y)/5 +4y = 3
-4/5 -y/5 +4y = 3
(3 4/5)y = 3 4/5 . . . . . add 4/5 (to both sides), collect terms
Now, you get to divide by 3 4/5 to get ...
y = (3 4/5)/(3 4/5) = 1
Fortunately, in this case, we can see the numerator and denominator are identical, so the division result is 1. If it weren't you'd be faced with dividing mixed numbers--not always a student's first choice of fun math operations.
x = (4 +1)/5 = 1 . . . . finishing up

Sonya had 20 dollars to spend on 3 gifts. She spent 8 1 4 dollars on gift A and 4 4 5 dollars on gift B. How much money did she have left for gift C?
Answer:
6 19/20 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Sonya had 20 dollars to spend on 3 gifts.
She spent 8 1 4 dollars on gift A and 4 4 5 dollars on gift B.
Gift A + Gift B + Gift C = $20
Gift C = $20 - (Gift A + Gift B)
Gift A = $8 1/4
Gift B = $4 4/5
Hence:
The amount she had left for gift C is :
Gift C = $20 - ($8 1/4 + $ 4 4/5)
Gift C = $20 - $13 1/20
Gift C = $ 6 19/20
7x-(3x+5)-8 = (1/2)*(8x+20) -7x +5
and
5(3x+4) -2x = 7x -3(-2x+11)
Answer:
For the first problem the answer is x=4
The second Problem the answer is no solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
7x−(3x+5)−8=1/2 (8x+20)−7x+5
7x+−3x+−5+−8=1/2(8x) +(1/2) (20)+−7x+5(Distribute)
7x+−3x+−5+−8=4x+10+−7x+5
(7x+−3x)+(−5+−8)=(4x+−7x)+(10+5)(Combine Like Terms)
4x+−13=−3x+15
4x−13=−3x+15
Step 2: Add 3x to both sides.
4x−13+3x=−3x+15+3x
7x−13=15
Add 13 to both sides.
7x−13+13=15+13
7x=28 Divide both sides by 7.
x=4
5(3x+4) -2x = 7x -3(-2x+11)
Simplify both sides of the equation.
5(3x+4)−2x=7x−3(−2x+11)
(5)(3x)+(5)(4)+−2x=7x+(−3)(−2x)+(−3)(11)(Distribute)
15x+20+−2x=7x+6x+−33
(15x+−2x)+(20)=(7x+6x)+(−33)(Combine Like Terms)
13x+20=13x+−33
13x+20=13x−33
Subtract 13x from both sides.
13x+20−13x=13x−33−13x
20=−33
Step 3: Subtract 20 from both sides.
20−20=−33−20
0=−53
There are no solutions.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7x-(3x+5)-8 = (1/2)*(8x+20) -7x +5
1. Distributive Property
7x - 3x - 5 - 8 = 4x + 20 - 7x + 5
2. Combine like terms
4x -13 = -3x + 25
3. Add 13 on both sides
4x -13 + 13 = -3x + 25 + 13
4x = -3x + 38
4. Add 3x on both sides
4x + 3x = -3x + 3x + 38
7x = 38
5. Divide by 7 on both sides
7x / 7= 38 / 7
x = 5.428571428571429
or
x = 5.4
__________________________________________________________
5(3x+4) -2x = 7x -3(-2x+11)
1. Distributive Property
15x + 20 - 2x = 7x + 6x - 33
2. Combine like terms
13x + 20 = 13x - 33
3. Subtract 20 on both sides
13x + 20 - 20 = 13x - 33 - 20
13x = 13x - 53
4. Subtract 13x on both sides
13x - 13x = 13x - 13x - 53
0 = -53 ( there is no answer for x)

Answer:
[tex]2x(4x+3)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing to factorising this expression is to find the greatest common factor (GCF). For 8x² and 6x the gcf is 2x. So now we divide the 8x² and 6x by the 2x. Which comes out to 4x and 3, these will be inside the parentheses.
So it'll factorise to [tex]2x(4x+3)[/tex] and remember when we are dividing with exponents we subtract the exponents. So [tex]\frac{8x^2}{2x}[/tex] we will divide the coefficients together that'll be 4 and now for the exponents the 2 on the x² minus the 1 on the x will equal 1 so it'll be just x we don't place a one or anything.

Answer:
Slope of the graph is steeper.
The answer is: [tex]\mathbf{Slope=\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First we will find slope of the graph.
The formula used to find slope is: [tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
We need to find two points from the graph to find the slope.
Let we take point 1 (-2,1) and point 2 (1,2)
We will have: [tex]x_1=-2, y_1=1, x_2=1, y_2=2[/tex]
Now finding slope of the graph
[tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{2-1}{1-(-2)} \\Slope=\frac{2-1}{1+2}\\Slope=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
So, slope of the graph is: [tex]\mathbf{Slope=\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]
Now, we will find slope of Linear function.
It has x-intercept of 1 and y-intercept of -2
x-intercept means y=0
So, the point will be: (1,0)
y-intercept means x=0
So, the point will be: (0,-2)
We will have: [tex]x_1=1, y_1=0, x_2=0, y_2=-2[/tex]
Putting values and finding slope
[tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{-2-0}{0-(1)} \\Slope=\frac{-2-0}{0+1}\\Slope=\frac{-2}{1}\\Slope=-2[/tex]
So, the slope of linear function is: [tex]\mathbf{Slope=-2}[/tex]
Now, we need to find which of the slope is steeper.
The larger the value of slope, more steeper it is:
Now, comparing the slopes:
The slope of the graph is: [tex]\mathbf{Slope=\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]
The slope of linear function is: [tex]\mathbf{Slope=-2}[/tex]
We know that, [tex]\frac{1}{3}>-2[/tex]
So, Slope of the graph is steeper.
The answer is: [tex]\mathbf{Slope=\frac{1}{3}}[/tex]
