A building is 5 times as tall as a tree. The total height of the building and the tree together is 48m
How tall is the Building?

40 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the tree be x meters.

Therefore, height of building = 5x

According to the given information:

Height of (building + tree) = 48 m

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1
