ali has a tree in his backyard. The tree grows 25 cm each year. Since the tree started growing Ali has trimmed 16 cm off its height. The goal for the trees height is given by 25x-16 is greater than or equal to 234, where x is the number of years the tree grows.
25x - 16 >= 234.
25x >= 234 + 16
25x >= 250
X >= 10 years.
post it.
X >= 10 years.
213
no its X ≥ 10
I agree with mago.
I was just joking.
ok
oh
To find the number of years it will take for the tree's height to reach or exceed 234 cm, we can use the equation 25x - 16 ≥ 234. Here's how you can solve it:
1. Start with the equation: 25x - 16 ≥ 234.
2. Add 16 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with x: 25x ≥ 250.
3. Divide both sides of the equation by 25 to solve for x: x ≥ 10.
Therefore, it will take at least 10 years for the tree's height to reach or exceed 234 cm, based on the given growth rate and the amount trimmed by Ali.
