The distributive property
multiplying a sum by a number is the same as multiplying each addend by the number and then adding the products

8x45= 360
8x40=320
8x5=40
8x40 + 8x5 = 360

A mailbox that is 36 inches tall is beside a tree.The length of the mailboxes shadow is 28 inches.The length of the trees shadow

mixer [17]

Answer:

10.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we have two similar triangles:

- One consists of the mailbox, its shadow and the hypothenuse

- The other one consists of the tree, its shadow and the hypothenuse

The two triangles are similar, so they have same proportions between their sides: therefore, we can apply the rule of three:

$\frac{m}{s_m}=\frac{t}{s_t}$

where

m = 36 in is the height of the mailbox

$s_m=28 in$ is the shadow of the mailbox

t is the height of the tree

$s_t=98 in$ is the length of the shadow of the tree

Solving for t, we find the height of the tree:

$t=\frac{m\cdot s_t}{s_m}=\frac{(36)(98)}{28}=126 in$

And since

1 feet = 12 inches

The height of the tree in feet is

$t=\frac{126}{12}=10.5 ft$
