A flagpole casts a shadow. At the same time a small tree casts a shadow. Use the sketch to find the height n of the flagpole The height of the flagpole is ___ feet
(type an integer or a simplified fraction.)

i think the length is 12 and the width is 17

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:

answe: it will take 4.5 hours for naomi and clair to paint an equal number of square feet

hope i
