Answer:
The height of the tree is
18.67
feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation:
The pole and the tree both cast shadows. The triangles which form are similar triangles, because the sun is shining from the same angle in the sky.
You can write this as a direct proportion. (height : shadow)

First you need to pick a number for y. Lets say you pick 0
Then you need to +3 to each side
Then you can say 3=x+2 or -3=x+2.
To find x you need to subtract 2.
You answer would be (1,3) and (-5.-3)
5x + -4y = 13
Solving
-5x + -4y = 13
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '4y' to each side of the equation.
-5x + -4y + 4y = 13 + 4y
Combine like terms: -4y + 4y = 0
-5x + 0 = 13 + 4y
-5x = 13 + 4y
Divide each side by '-5'.
x = -2.6 + -0.8y
Simplifying
x = -2.6 + -0.8y
Simplifying
3x + -4y + -11 = 0
Reorder the terms:
-11 + 3x + -4y = 0
Solving
-11 + 3x + -4y = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '11' to each side of the equation.
-11 + 3x + 11 + -4y = 0 + 11
Reorder the terms:
-11 + 11 + 3x + -4y = 0 + 11
Combine like terms: -11 + 11 = 0
0 + 3x + -4y = 0 + 11
3x + -4y = 0 + 11Combine like terms: 0 + 11 = 11
3x + -4y = 11
Add '4y' to each side of the equation.
3x + -4y + 4y = 11 + 4y
Combine like terms: -4y + 4y = 0
3x + 0 = 11 + 4y
3x = 11 + 4y
Divide each side by '3'.
x = 3.666666667 + 1.333333333y
Simplifying
x = 3.666666667 + 1.333333333y
