Let x be the <span>heights of a maple tree and y be the height of the cherry tree.
We know:
</span>

<span>The new ratio is obtained like this:
</span>

.
From the above equation we get

.
then

Solving the above equation for y we get:

So
So the first tree is (400-160=240) more taller than cherry tree.
Answer:
y = 23x + 10
y = 28x + 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Miguel :
Velocity = 23 km/hr
Starting position = 10 miles
Gabby:
Velocity = 28 km/hr
Starting position = 0 miles
The general form of a linear equation :
y = mx + c
In the scenario above ; the starting points corresponds to the intercept, c
The distance moved per hour (velocity) is the slope (m), which is the change in y per unit change in x
Hence ;
Miguel:
y = 23x + 10
Gabby:
y = 28x + 0
Answer : 4.73333333 Minutes
