Remember
![x^ \frac{m}{n}= \sqrt[n]{x^m}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%20%5Cfrac%7Bm%7D%7Bn%7D%3D%20%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5Em%7D%20%20)
so
![5^ \frac{2}{5}= \sqrt[5]{5^2}= \sqrt[5]{25}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=5%5E%20%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B5%7D%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B5%5D%7B5%5E2%7D%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B5%5D%7B25%7D%20%20)
so
A tree casts you say shadow that is 9 feet long at the same time a person standing nearby casts a shadow that is 3 feet long if
the person is five point feet tall how tall is the tree

Solving an equation means finding a value of a variable that make the equation true. This value is called the solution of the equation.<span> A mathematical equation is just like a balanced equation. Both sides of the equation should be equal at all times. </span><span>Whatever we do to one side, has to be done on the opposite side.</span>
