Twice the sum of a number and 4 is 14. In this case the numbers are added first, and the ANSWER is doubled.
Let's solve this problem step-by-step.
STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION:
We will be using Pythagoras theorem to solve this problem. This is as this problem forms a right-angle triangle. Pythagoras theorem is the following:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Where c = hypotenuse of right-angle triangle
Where a and b = other two sides of right-angle triangle
To begin with, we will substitute the values from the problem into the equation. Then we will make the height of the tree the subject of the equation.
a = height of tree = ?
b = distance from the bird on the ground to the base of the tree = 8 metres
c = distance bird travelled from the ground to the top of the tree = 9 metres
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 8^2 = 9^2
a^2 = 9^2 - 8^2
a = square root of ( 9^2 - 8^2 )
a = square root of ( 81 - 64 )
a = square root of ( 17 )
a = 4.123...
a = 4.1 ( rounded to the nearest tenth )
FINAL ANSWER:
Therefore, the height of the tree is 4.1 metres ( rounded to the nearest tenth ).
Hope this helps! :)

Step-by-step explanation:
you know how to calculate the area of a rectangle ?
it is length × width.
now the volume of a 3D-rectangle (= a rectangular prism) is simply
length × width × height.
in our case
5 1/2 × 1 1/2 × 2 = 11/2 × 3/2 × 2 = 33/2 =
= 16 1/2 cubic units
I believe the correct answer is B. -5
