A tree cast a shadow of 30m long and a 2m stick casts one that is 3m long. As show in the below diagram how tall is the tree?​

Step-by-step explanation:

We have similar triangles here.

The ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles is same:

Take the similar triangles,

→ ∆ADE ≈ ∆ABC

Now we can find,

The height of the tree in meters,

→ BC/DE = AC/AE

In this equation BC is the height of tree,

→ BC/2 = 30/3

→ BC/2 = 10

→ BC = 10 × 2

→ BC = 20

Hence, the height of the tree is 20 m.

y = - 6

step-by-step explanation:

given the point (- 2, y) lies on the graph then it is a solution of it's equation.

substitute x = - 2 into the equation for value of y

y = 3(- 2) = 3 × - 2 = - 6

the point on the graph is (- 2, 6)

all it means is function 3
