1x + 8 = 10 + 0.5x
1x - 0.5x = .5x
.5x + 8 = 10
10 - 8 = 2
2/.5 = 4
Therefore, it will take 4 years for the two trees to have grown to the same height.
6/8, 3/4 hopes this helps
If the original side length is "s" and the original slant height is "h", the original surface area is
.. S = (base area) +(lateral area)
.. S = s² +(1/2)*(4s)*h
.. S = s(s +2h)
Now, if we make these replacements: s ⇒ 3s, h ⇒ h/5, we have
.. S' = (3s)(3s +2h/5)
.. S' = 9s² +(6/5)s*h . . . . . . . the formula for the modified area (in terms of original dimensions)
_____
Of course, in terms of the modified dimensions, the formula is the same:
.. S' = s'(s' +2h')
Y=1/5x+13/5 and the slop is 1/5
