7-foot
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.
Based on the given problem of -7x⁴ = 36, the solution to the equation is x = -1.5.
<h3>What is the solution to this problem?</h3>
The equation to find x is given as:
-7x⁴ = 36
Solving it gives:
-7x⁴ = 36
x⁴ = 36/-7
x⁴ = -36/7
x = ⁴√(-36/7)
x = -1.5
In conclusion, x is -1.5.

Answer:
(Base x height) x 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
We do this because a triangle is emulating a rectangle with Base x Height. However, a triangle's shape is less conventional than a standard square or rectangle, thus the division by 2.
Law of sines can be used to solve this problem:
(note - let x represent the missing side length.)
1. set up proportion.
sin 90°/25 = sin 55<span>°/x
2. solve.
(x) sin 90</span>° = (25) sin 55<span>°
(x) sin 90 </span>°/sin 90° = (25) sin 55° / sin 90<span>°
</span>
x = 20.4788011072
rounded to nearest tenth = 20.5
