Answer:In 8 years the tree will have the same height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let x = the number of years when the two trees will be the same height.

For the 2ft tree, you can express its height in x years as:

2+1(x)

And for the 6ft. tree...

6+0.5(x)

Step 2:

2+x = 6+0.5x Subtract 0.5x from both sides.

2+0.5x = 6 Now subtract 2 from both sides.

0.5x = 4 Finally, divide both sides by 0.5

x = 8

lubasha [3.4K]
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = -6
(-2,-3)...x = -2 and y = -3
now we sub....we r looking for b, the y int
-3 = -6(-2) + b
-3 = 12 + b
-3-12 = b
-15 = b

so ur equation is : y = -6x - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

total length = 24 inches

first piece = x in

second piece = 2x

third piece = 3x

Equation

               x + 2x + 3x = 24

               6x = 24

               x = 24/6

               x = 4               length of the first piece

second piece = 2(4) = 8 inches

third piece = 3(4) = 12 inches
