2 answers:
Answer:
c) 12x + 36 = 10x + 48
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information:
Height of tree A = 36 inches
Growth rate of tree A = 12 inches per year.
Height of tree B = 48 inches
Growth rate of tree B = 10 inches per year.
If x is the number of years after which the tree will have same height.
Height of tree A in x years =
Height of tree B in x years =
Equating these equation,
Hence, option c) represents the correct equation such that the tress will have same height in x years.

we are given that
3 chickens to lay 32 eggs
now, we can find number of eggs per chicken
number of eggs per chicken= (total eggs)/(total chicken)
so, we get

now, we can set up following
1.5 chicken : 1.5 eggs : 1.5 days
3 chickens : 3 eggs : 1.5 days
1 chicken : 1 egg : 1.5 days

time to lay eggs will always remain same
