Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 inch to 1 mile = 1 3/4(or 7/4 in) to x miles

make a proportion

(3/4) (7/4)

-------- = ------- cross multiply

1 x

(3/4)(x) = (7/4)(1)

3/4x = 7/4

x = (7/4) / (3/4)

x = 7/4 * 4/3

x = 7/3 or 2 1/3 miles <===

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

$b = \sqrt{ {c}^{2} - {a}^{2} }$

subtitute in the values

$b = \sqrt{ {15}^{2} - {9}^{2} }$

$b = \sqrt{225 - 81}$

$b = \sqrt{144}$

$b = 12$
