Leg one: x (shorter side)
Leg two: x+6
Hypotenuse: 2x-6
Use a^2+b^2=c^2
x^2+(x+6)^2=(2x-6)^2
x^2+x^2+12x+36=4x^2-24x+36
2x^2+12x=4x^2-24x
36x=2x^2
36 = 2x
x = 18

EXPLANAT

Given:

14 foot tree

8foot shadow

4foot shadow

Let h be the height of a tee that casts a 4 foot long shadow.

Using proportion;

14 foot = 8 ft shadow

h = 4 ft shadow

Cross - multiply

8h = 56

Divide both-side by 8

h = 7 foot.

Hence, the tree is 7-foot.

Answer:

(0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

solve for 2y

-X-2y= -6

2y=6+2x

substitute the given value of 2y into the equation -x-2y=-6

-x-(6+3x)= -6

solve for x

x=0

substitute the given value of X into the equation 2y=6+3x

2y=6+3×0

solve for y

y=3

the solution is (0,3)
