What is the constant rate of this? Please show your work.

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope Formula:

y2 - y1/x2 - x1

Let's use (5, 15) and (8,24)

(x1, y1) = (5, 15)

(y1, y2) = (8, 24)

Substitute:

y2 - y1/x2 - x1

24 - 15/8 - 5

Solve:

24 - 15/8 - 5

9/3

= 3

Therefore the slope, or constant rate is 3.

Tip: look at the relationship between Cost and Time.

15/5 = 3

24/8 = 3

36/12 = 3

72/24 = 3

Dividing is a simple way to find the slope!

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,

168

step-by-step explanation:

i am pretty sure that the answer is 168
