1 answer:

5 0

Defining variables
let n1 be the first number
n2 be the 2nd number

add them together, you get 218
n1+n2 =218

n1 is 47 less than n2
n1=n2-47

do some substitution
n2-47 +n2 = 218

solve for n2

then use n2 to figure out n1

$\tan33^{\circ}=\frac{h}{125}$ , where $h$ is the height of the tree.

Solving, we get:

$h=125\cdot \tan 33^{\circ},\\h\approx \fbox{$81.2\:\mathrm{ft}$}$ .
