Answer:
16 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 16 ft because 6 ft tall over 4 feet 6 inches (4.5) is equal to x (tree's height) over 12 ft. You cross multiple and get 72 = 4.5x then you take 72 and divide by 4.5 to get the tree's height

Solve for when :
The total area of a circle is pi * radius^2
The total area of the circle is pi x 5^2 = 25pi sq. cm.
2/5 of this is success, so the answer is 2/5 * 25pi = 10 pi sq. cm.
The answer is: 454 miles. You have to divide 2951 miles by 6.5 hours so 2951/6.5=454.
