The tree's height is 36 feet!

Work/explanation below:

1. The ratio of the boy's shadow to height is 4 : 6 or 1 : 1.5.

2. Plug the tree's shadow into the ratio and you have 24 : 24 X 1.5

3. 24 X 1.5 = 36.

Hope that helped!

choli [55]

Answer:

-4x + 12 = 20 is incorrect. she added 12 to 20 instead of subtracting 12 from both sides.

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

3,628,800 (aka "10!")

Step-by-step explanation:

The first letter in the code can be 10 possible letters.

Since every letter can only be used once, the second letter can only be 9 possible letters.

E.G.: If the first letter is A, the second letter is B-J.

The third letter would be 8 possible letters, than the fourth would be 7, etc.

In math form, figuring out the possible combinations would be written out as so:

10 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1

An easier way to write this out would be using "10!", which stands for "10 Factorial"

The result of the above equals 3,628,800.
