How tall is a tree which is 15 feet shorter than a pole that is 3 times as tall as the tree?
Citrus2011 [14]
<h2>Height of tree is 7.5 feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t be the height of pole.

Given that the tree is 5 feet shorter than a pole.

Height of pole = t + 15

Also given that the pole is 3 times as tall as the tree.

Height of pole = 3t

So we have

              t + 15 = 3t

                 2t = 15

                   t = 7.5 feet

Height of tree = 7.5 feet
