Answer:

The height of tree can lie in the range (275,281).

Explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Let x be the height of tree in feet.

We are given that:

Giant Sequoia= 275 feet, Sugar Pine= 232 feet,Coast Douglas fir=281 feet, Port Or-ford Cedar=219 feet, Coast Redwood=321 feet

The height of tree is greater than Giant Sequoia. This can be represented in the equation:


x > 275

The height of tree is less than a Coast Douglas. This can be represented in the equation:


x < 281

Combining both the equations we get:


275 < x < 281

Thus, the height of tree can lie in the range (275,281).
