To find out how high the cat can jump, we need to set up an equation using algebra.

Let's use the variable "H" to represent the height the cat can jump.

According to the question, the cat can jump 5 times the length of its tail, which is 13 inches. Therefore, we can write the equation as:

H = 5 * 13

Now, let's solve this equation:

H = 5 * 13
H = 65

So, the cat can jump 65 inches in height.
