(length of tree's shadow)/(height of tree) = (length of person's shadow)/(person's height)
24/x = 8/5
24*5 = x*8
120 = 8x
8x = 120
8x/8 = 120/8
x = 15
The tree is 15 feet tall
Express it in Scientific notation

The answer:
4.88 x 10⁷
Answer:
288 units^3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the volume of this prism, first find the area of the triangular end.
A = (1/2)(base)(height) comes out to A = (1/2)(6)(8), or A = 24 square units.
Next, multiply this area by the length of the prism: V = (24 units^2)(12 units) = 288 units^3
The volume is 288 units^3
