Answer:

A. 119

Step-by-step explanation:

In 15 years, the tree grew to a height of 8 x 17 = 136 feet. Since it was planted at a height of 17 feet, the tree grew 136-17=119 feet.

For what value of a should you solve the system of elimination?

\begin{bmatrix}3x+5y=10\\ 2x+ay=4\end{bmatrix}

\mathrm{Multiply\:}3x+5y=10\mathrm{\:by\:}2: 6x+10y=20
\mathrm{Multiply\:}2x+ay=4\mathrm{\:by\:}3: 3ay+6x=12

\begin{bmatrix}6x+10y=20\\ 6x+3ay=12\end{bmatrix}

6x + 3ay = 12

\frac{-10y}{-10}=-\frac{8}{-10}-\frac{3a}{-10}
