Plant A Tree The Boy Scouts planted a red fir and a Monterey pine to mark their 1993 camping spot. The red fir was 26 inches tall and the Monterey pine was 8 inches tall. If the rate of growth for the red fir is 20 inches per year, and the rate of growth for the Monterey pine is 2 feet per year, in how many years will the trees be the same height?
