Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
The midpoint of BC will be a distance from line k that is the average of the distances of B and C: (17+13)/2 = 15. Call that midpoint P. We know distance MP is half of distance MA. This same relationship will hold with respect to the distances from P and A to any line through M. That is, the distance from line k (through M) is twice the distance from P to line k: 30 units.
(1 & 2/3) ft = (1 ft) + (2/3 ft)
(1 & 2/3) ft = 12 inches + 12*(2/3) inches
(1 & 2/3) ft = 12 inches + 8 inches
(1 & 2/3) ft = 20 inches
If the tree grows 5 inches per year, then it will take 4 years to get to 20 inches since 5*4 = 20. You can also divide to get 20/5 = 4.
So it takes 4 years for the tree to grow 1&2/3 feet tall.
