Question

A tree is currently

Answer 1

The inequality expression for the number of years when tree will be atleast 20 feets tall is x ≥14

• Current height = 2

• Growth rate = 1.3 feets per year

The height of the tree after x years can be represented as a linear equation thus :

• Height = 2 + 1.3x

Number of years when the tree will be 20 feets tall :

• 20 = 2 + 1.3x
• 20 - 2 = 1.3x
• 1.3x = 18
• x = 13.84

The tree would be atleast 20 feets tall in 14 years x this can be expressed thus

• x ≥14
