<h2>Answer:</h2>

13.391 ft

<h2>Explanations:</h2>

The schematic diagram of the given question is shown below;

The height of the tree is expressed as:

H = h +5

Determine the value of h using the SOH CAH TOA identity

\begin{gathered} tan\theta=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\ tan40^0=\frac{h}{10} \\ h=10tan40 \\ h=10(0.8391) \\ h=8.391ft \\  \end{gathered}

Determine the height of the tree

\begin{gathered} H=h+5 \\ H=8.391+5 \\ H=13.391ft \end{gathered}

Hence the height of the tree is 13.391ft

Megan took a cab ride and was charged a fare of $1.50 per mile and an additional charge of $5 for her luggage. If Megan traveled
____ [38]
For example let's say Megan has to pay the cab driver $50. Here's the equation 50=1.50x + 5 First you want to get x by itself on one side. So subtract 5 on both sides 50=1.50x + 5 -5 -5 --------------------------- 45=1.50x Now that you have x on one side; however, you want to divide to get the answer. 45=1.50x ----------------------- 1.50 x = 30 So if Megan pay $50 that mean she rode 30 miles ~by the way I'm sorry if you are looking at the answers and it isn't in the right place, I'm answering this on a tablet~
