<span><u>Answer
</u>
18 feet and 4.5 inches
<u>Explanation
</u>
You are going to use the concept of similar triangle.
∆CED≡∆CBA
This is because they share the angle at C and also they both have an angle of 90o.
Let EC = X, then BE = 2.5X. So, BE = (X + 2.5X) = 3.5X
The scale factor EC/BC=x/3.5x=2/7
EC/BC=ED/BA=2/7
BA=7/2×63 in
The height of the tree = 220.5 inches. This is equal 18 feet and 4.5 inches.

The solution of the given system of equation is x = -3 and y = 4 respectively.
<h3>What is a system of linear equations?</h3>
A system of linear equations can be defined as a number of equations needed to solve the equations. For n number of variables n number of equations are required.
The given system of equations is as,
y = 4x + 16 (1)
y = −2x − 2 (2)
In order to solve them, substitute equation (2) into (1) as follows,
4x + 16 = −2x − 2
=> 4x + 2x = -2 - 16
=> 6x = -18
=> x = -3
Then, y = -2 × -3 - 2 = 4
Hence, the solution of the given system of equation is x = -3 and y = 4.

Staals half
1 gram left
0.3 grams left
half lives are normally written in years
it goes likt this
![A=P( \frac{1}{2})^ \frac{t}{h}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3DP%28%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%20%5Cfrac%7Bt%7D%7Bh%7D%20%20)
A=final amount
P=initila amount
t=time elapsed
h=time half life is (same units as time)
let's use days as the units of time
we are given
initial amount=1gram
final amount=0.3gram
time=4 days
so
![0.3=1( \frac{1}{2})^ \frac{4}{h}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.3%3D1%28%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%20%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7Bh%7D%20%20)
solve for h
![0.3=( \frac{1}{2})^ \frac{4}{h}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.3%3D%28%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%20%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7Bh%7D%20%20)
take the ln of both sides
![ln(0.3)=ln( \frac{1}{2})^ \frac{4}{h}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=ln%280.3%29%3Dln%28%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%29%5E%20%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7Bh%7D%20%20)
![ln(0.3)=\frac{4}{h}ln( \frac{1}{2})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=ln%280.3%29%3D%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7Bh%7Dln%28%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%29%20%20%20)
times both sides by h
![hln(0.3)=4ln( \frac{1}{2})](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=hln%280.3%29%3D4ln%28%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%29%20%20%20)
divide both sides by ln(0.3)
![h= \frac{4ln( \frac{1}{2}) }{ln(0.3)}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B4ln%28%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%29%20%7D%7Bln%280.3%29%7D%20)
use calculator
h=2.30287
3 sig figs
h=2.303 days
For this, the equation is
90× 1.13³=y
X was replaced with y. Since she is gaining, you have to remember she is going to have 100 percent of what he had before, she will not lose any.
90× 1.13= 129.86
Now, we need to find the amount of interest she gained, so we have to subtract 90 from the total.
129.86-90=39.86
We can also find the answer by completing a small chart.
The first column will be the year. The second will be the amount. The third will be the interest for the year.
1 90 11.7
2 101.7 13.22
3 114.92 14.94
The total would round to 39.86, so her interest for the 3 year would be 39.86, with her having 129.86 altogether.
First you’ll multiply to get 3x2x2 + 4x3. Then add them together. 12+12=24
