Lily paints 3 trees for a wall mural the middle tree is 2 1/2 ft tall the tree on the left is 3/4as tall as the middle tree the tree on the right is 1 3/4 times as tall as the middle tree how tall is each tree

Respuesta :

Answer:

Middle: 2.5  ft

Right: 4,375  ft

Left: 1,875 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a tree in the middle is 2.5 feet tall.

Now the tree on the left measures 3/4 of the tree in the middle, therefore:

2.5 * 3/4 = 1.875

Which means that the tree on the left is 1.875 feet tall.

Finally the tree on the right 1 3/4, which would be 1.75 times the tree in the middle, therefore:

2.5 * 1.75 = 4.375

Therefore the tree on the right is 4.375 feet tall.

Answer:

Middle tree = [tex]2\frac{1}{2} ft[/tex]

Left tree = [tex]1\frac{3}{12} ft[/tex]

Right tree = [tex]4\frac{3}{8}ft[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we are told that:

middle tree = 2 1/2 feet

Left  tree = 3/4 times the height of the middle tree

Left tree = 3/4 × 2 1/2 = [tex]\frac{3}{4} * \frac{5}{3} = 15/12 = 1\frac{3}{12} ft[/tex]

right tree = 1 3/4 times the height of the middle tree

right tree = 7/4 × 5/2 = 35/8 = [tex]4\frac{3}{8}ft[/tex]
