Proportion:- 

 27       4.5
------ =  -------
  x          5

x = height of tree.

4.5 · x = 27 · 5
4.5 · x = 135

135 ÷ 4.5 = 30 

SO,

x = 30

The tree is 30 ft long.

Hope i helped ya!!

Answer:

  • 1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Sides of the picture added margin:</u>

  • l = 8 + 2x
  • w = 5 + 2x
  • A(margin) = 30 cm²

<u>Solution</u>:

  • A(margin) = Total area - A(picture)
  • (8 + 2x)(5 + 2x) - 5*8 = 30
  • 4x² + 10x + 16x + 40 - 40 - 30 = 0
  • 4x² + 26x - 30 = 0
  • 2x² + 13x - 15 = 0
  • x = (-13 + √(13² + 2*4*15))/4
  • x = (-13 + 17)/4
  • x = 1 cm

Note. The other root is ignored as negative.

Write a two column proof
Annette [7]

4y=2x-10 and y=6

use the second expression to calculate the left-hand side of the first equation:

4\cdot 6 = 2x -10\\24 = 2x -10

Add 10 to both sides if this equation to get

34 = 2x

and divide both sides by 2

17 = x

this proves that x = 17, give the two initial equations

Elanso [62]

Key in the expression is "s" that represents students going to the trip

The first part shows what the adventure park is going to charge, a group day charge of $300 and $30 more for the students taking the ropes course

300+30*s

The second being the amount the class can get, $500 the have in the account and $25 per student in tickets they have to sell

500+25s
