If you wanted a 40 foot tree in your yard, how much faster would a poplar, which grows 8 feet per year, reach that goal than a red maple, which grows 5 feet per year?

Not totally sure if i'm reading the question right bt;

the answer is (I think) a poplar would reach 40 feet high in 5 years, while the red maple would reach the goal in 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

using division, 40/8 = 5 years

40/ 5 = 8 years.

like I said, not positive I read the question correctly but I hope this helps xx have a nice day :)

i'm sorry i don't know
