A 12-foot tall house casts a shadow that is 9 feet long. At the same time, a nearby flag pole casts a shadow that is 15 feet long. How tall is the flag pole to the nearest foot?

The answer is 20ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they both cast shadows at the same time, the ratios of their height to their respective shadow length will be the same.

Hence; we'll equate both ratios to find the length.

House= 12/9

Flag pole= h/15

Equating both:

12/9 = h/15

h x 9 = 12 x 15

h = 180/9

h = 20ft

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question above,we are told to find the height of a pole that is next to a house 12 feet tall and casts a shadow that is 9 feet long and the shadow that was casted by the pole is also 15 feet long.

Let's assume that the height of the pole to be x

12/x = 9/15

Cross multiply the above so that we can have the value of x (x is the height of the pole)

X = 12 × 15 ÷ 9

X = 180/9

X = 20

X,which is the height of the pole, is 20 feet long

then say something, tell them they won’t respect you if you don’t even have respect for your self sweetheart you need to lay it on them, all of it : )

x-150=475   x=625

step-by-step explanation:

if the bike after the sale ($150) is $475 then just simply add 150 to 475.
