Multiply 3 by both sides answer x=27/16 or in decimal 1.6875
Answer:
<em>Choice B. 16 feet.</em>
<em>The height of the tree is 16 ft</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Similar Triangles</u>
Similar triangles have their corresponding side lengths proportional by a fixed scale factor.
We are given the drawings of a tree and a wall and it's assumed both triangles are similar. We need to find the scale factor and find the height of the tree.
Comparing the corresponding distances from the viewer to the base of the tree and the base of the wall, we can calculate the scale factor as 24/6=4.
Applying the same factor to the height of the model, we get the height of the tree is 4*4 = 16 ft.
Choice B. 16 feet
The height of the tree is 16 ft
Answer: (2x+5)(2x−5)
Step-by-step explanation:For me, what i like to do is to try divide the problem into two parts. For example in this problem, you would divide the 4x^2 into two 4x(since 4x+4x = 4x^2). Then 25 can be divide into into 5s (5x5=25). SInce you know that its a negative 25, you know that it has to be a negative on one of the sides. So the answer in factor form is (2x+5)(2x−5)
