the difference between the heights of two trees is 20 cm . 10 years ago , the taller one was thrice as taller as the shorter one . the present height of the taller tree is
let their heights of x cm and ( x + 20 ) cm respectively . then , ( x + 20 ) - 10 = 3 ( x - 10 ) ⇔ x + 10 = 3 x - 30 ⇔ 2 x = 40 ∴ present height of taller tree = ( 20 + 10 ) = 30 cm . answer : 30 cm
multiply(add(20, 10), 10)
