A scientist conducts an experiment with two trees over many years. The shorter tree had a starting height of 50 inches and the taller tree has a starting height of 70 inches. The scientist apply fertilizer to the shorter tree and it grows at an average rate of 8 inches per year. The taller tree does not have fertilizer applied to it and it grows at an average rate of 6 inches per year. The equation 50 + 81 = 70 + 6t represents the situation. After how many years will the heights of the trees be the same?

Step-by-step explanation:

I never seen two pretty best friends it's always one of them got to be ugly

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
