Let $\"y\"$ = the number of years passed since
\n" ); document.write( "Tony planted the tree
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5y\"$ is the number of feet the tree grows
\n" ); document.write( "after $\"y\"$ years
\n" ); document.write( "It was $\"4\"$ ft tall to start with, so
\n" ); document.write( " $\"4+%2B+5y+=+29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5y+=+25\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y+=+5\"$
\n" ); document.write( "It will take 5 years to be 29 ft tall
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
