Step-by-step explanation:
the equation :
Hn = 7n + 3
where :
Hn : the height of trees at year to-n
n : year to-n (n = 1,2,3,...)
so, the rate of change : increasing 7 feet per year.

1/3x^11 is the answer
Answer:
80° , 100°, 80°
Step-by-step explanation:
∠ 1 and ∠ 2 form a straight line and sum to 180° , then
2x + 40 + 2y + 40 = 180
2x + 2y + 80 = 180 ( subtract 80 from both sides )
2x + 2y = 100 → (1)
∠ 1 and ∠ 3 are vertical angles and are congruent , then
2x + 40 = x + 2y ( subtract x from both sides )
x + 40 = 2y ( subtract 40 from both sides )
x = 2y - 40 → (2)
Substitute x = 2y - 40 into (1)
2(2y - 40) + 2y = 100
4y - 80 + 2y = 100
6y - 80 = 100 ( add 80 to both sides )
6y = 180 ( divide both sides by 6 )
y = 30
Substitute y = 30 into (2)
x = 2(30) - 40 = 60 - 40 = 20
Thus x = 20 and y = 30
Then
∠ 1 = 2x + 40 = 2(20) + 40 = 40 + 40 = 80°
∠ 2 = 2y + 40 = 2(30) + 40 = 60 + 40 = 100°
∠3 = x + 2y = 20 + 2(30) = 20 + 60 = 80°
Assuming you know the quadratic formula:
You can fill in a, b and c in this and get:
Now, let's create a shorthand 
to make the writing easier:
But since one root is three times the other root (but we don't know which one), we also know that:
or 
If you solve this, you get:
or 
However, since q is a square root, it must be postive.
So we know that:
From this you find that
So p = 3/2
The roots are x=1/2 and x=3/2.
