Answer:

the height of the flagpole is three fourths the height of the school. the difference in there heights is 4.5 m. what is the height of the school?

----------

Equation:

f = (3/4)s

s-f = 4.5

----

Substitute for "f" and solve for "s":

s-(3/4)s = 4.5

 

(1/4)s = 4.5

s = 4*4.5

s = 18 meters (height of the school)

---------------

Since f = (3/4)s, f = (3/4)(18)

= (3/2)(9)= 13.5 meters (height of the flag pole)
