Answer:

20 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 triangles are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal.

let h be the height of the tree, then

$\frac{h}{5}$ = $\frac{32}{8}$ = 4 ( multiply both sides by 5 )

h = 20

The height of the tree is 20 ft

Your company recently made a purchase of 25 identical tables. The purchase price after adding 5 percent sales tax was 1,706.25.

ELEN [110]

If c = the cost of one table, the cost of all 25 tables before sales tax is 25·c

Since the sales tax is 5%, or 0.05, the sales tax for 25 tables is 25·c·0.05

Adding the sales tax to the original cost of the 25 tables can give you:
25·c + 25·c·0.05 = 1706.25
1.05·25·c = 1706.25
26.25·c = 1706.25
c = $\frac{1706.25}{26.25}$ = 65

so the refund for 5 tables would be 5*65 = $325
