The answer is 18. The two sides are the same length, so you set the two sides equal to each other and solve for x. After finding x, you plug in the number into the base expression and you get the base length.

George is 1.94 meters tall and wants to find the height of a tree in his yard. He started at the base of the tree and walked 10.
Free_Kalibri [48]
Draw a diagram to illustrate problem as shown below.

Let h = the height of the tree.

Because ΔABC ~ ΔADE, therefore
DE/BC = AD/AB

That is,
h/1.94 = (5.1 + 10.2)/5.1 = 3
h = 1.94*3 = 5.82 m

Answer: 5.82 m

The y intercept of the line 5y + 2x -3=0
Alecsey [184]

5y+2x-3=0

5y=-2x+3

y=-2/5 x+3

Sope intercept of the line is y=-2/5 x+ 3/5.

The intercept is 3/5.

Check: x=0 when y=3/5

5y+2x-3=0

5(3/5)+2x-3

3+2x-3=0

2x=0

x=0

Correct

The answer is 3/5.
