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)

Hello!
The original equation is:
200 = (5w ÷ 2)8
This problem can be written as:
200 = (5w/2)8
And you can then reduce the numbers with 2:
200 = 5x * 4
200 = 20x
10 = x
Your correct answer is 10.
slope intercept form is y=mx+b
so solve for y
2x+y=-3
minus 2x both sides
y=-2x-3
-2y=6+4x
divide both sides by -2
y=-3-2x
y=-2x-3
