A cell phone tower and a fence are on the same property. the fence is 8 feet tall and has a shadow that measures 14.5 feet. the shadow of the cell phone tower measures 72.5 feet . how tall is the cell phone tower ?

40 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Height of fence = 8 feets

Shadow of fence = 14.5 feets

Shadow of cell phone tower = 72.5 feets

Height of cell phone tower = x

Height of fence = shadow of fence

Height of tower = shadow of tower

8 feets= 14.5 feets

x feets = 72.5

Cross multiply :

(14.5 * x) = (72.5 * 8)

14.5x = 580 feets

x = 580/14.5

x = 40 feets

Hence, the height of the cell phone tower is 40 feets

1 + (6 / x - 1)

step-by-step explanation:

divide using polynomial division.

twenty-six miles over two gallons because the proportion for the original 13 miles to one gallon would be written 13/1 and, doing the same thing to the top and bottom, i multiplied by 2 and got 26/2
