Let x be the height of the tree.

1.3 x
------- = ------
1.8 7

1.8x = (1.3) (7)

1.8x /1.8 = 9.1 / 1.8 (divide both sides of equation by 1.8)

x = 5.1 meters

ANSWER: The tree is 5.1 meters tall.

Number 6. I have no idea how to do this because the question doesn’t give enough information

Savatey [412]

${13}^{2} = {5}^{2} \times {b}^{2} \\ 169 = 25 \times {b}^{2} \\ 165 - 25 = {b}^{2} \\ 144 = {b}^{2} \\ \sqrt{ {b}^{2} } = \sqrt{144} \\ b = 12$
