A palm tree is 30 feet tall and casts a 48 foot shadow. The woman standing next to the palm tree casts a shadow similar to that of the palm tree. How tall is the woman if she casts an 8 foot shadow?

1. use commutative property to reorder the terms.2x+81=0.2. move the constant to right side by adding its opposite on both sides. 2x+81-81=0-81.2x=(-81).3. divide the equation on both sides.2x ÷ 2 = 81 ÷ 2.x = -81/2. your answer is -81/2. if you need to simplify it into a decimal, it’s -40.5.

1) add 6 to 24, write the rest of the equation 10-2x= 30 subtract 10 from 30 2x=20 divide 20 by 2 and x=102) add 3 to -9 write the rest of the equation 4x+3=-6 subtract 3 from -6 4x=-9 x= -2.25  i don't know the rest sorry
