A lumber mill needs one more tree cut down that is at least 29 feet long. The person cutting down the tree is 6 feet 2 inches tall. Using shadows to determine whether a tree is tall enough, the person stands next to the tree and measures the length of his shadow as 32 inches. What is the length (to the nearest tenth of a foot) of the tree’s shadow that will allow the tree to be cut down?

do i do it on a graph?

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is a.) bc< mn 5 stars if this you : )

step-by-step explanation:

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15
