Answer:
The tree is 12 feet tall
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a represent the length of where the bird was sitting to the oak tree
let b represent the height of the tree
let c represent the length at which the bird flew
by pythagoras theorem
c²=a²+b²
b²=c²-a²

subtitute in the values




27 inches ......... 3/8
x inches .............8/8
<h3>x = (27×8/8)/(3/8) = 27×8/3 = 216/3 = 72 inches (father)</h3>
No, they are not equivalent because if you distribute the -0.5 in the expression -0.5(3x+5) you will get -1.5x-2.5 which is not the same as -1.5+2.5
