A gardener is planting two types of trees:Type A is three feet tall and grows at a rate of 15 inches per year. Type Bis four feet tall and grows at a rate of 10 inches per years. Determine exactly How long many years it will take for these trees to be the same height

2.4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to first convert the trees' heights into inches. three feet is equivalent to 36 inches and four feet is equivalent to 48 inches. Since three A grows at 15 inches a year it'll become a the expression 15x+36 and the expression for tree B will be 10x+48. You set them up to each other and simplify it.

15x+36=10x+48

-10x - 10x

5x+36=48

-36 - 36

5x=12

/5 / 5

x=2.4

So it'll be 2.4 years
