You need to take away 4 degrees from 92.
"Take away" means subtraction.
92 - 4
The answer is option C.
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

Ax + z = aw - y....subtract aw from both sides
ax - aw + z = -y....subtract z from both sides
ax - aw = -y - z....factor out a on the left side
a(x - w) = -y - z...divide both sides by (x-w)
a = (-y - z) / (x - w)
