just follow the steps:

100-15 since it's 15 inches taller

=85

85/5 since it's 5 times the height of the kiwi

=17

The kiwi is 17 inches tall

Hey there!!

Let's take the height of the Ostrich as ' x '

Height of ostrich = 100

Height of the ostrich = 15 inches taller than 5 times of Kiwi

Height of the ostrich = 5x + 15

Let's get this into an whole equation :

5x + 15 = 100

Subtract 15 on both sides

5x = 85

Divide by 5 on both sides

x = 85 / 5

x = 17

Hence, the height of Kiwi = 17 inches

Hope my answer helps!!

The ratio of the height to shadow length is a constant.
.. (5 ft)/(132 ft) = (tree height)/(144 ft)
.. (tree height) = (144 ft)*(5/132) = 5 5/11 ft

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) (2,350),(5,530)

b) (530-350)/(5-2)=60

c) y=60x+b, using point (2,350)

350=60(2)+b

b=230

w=60t+230

c) w(7)=60(7)+230

w(7)=$650

Answer:

The better buy is to buy 10 kilograms of potatoes at $ 3.92, since each kilogram costs $ 0.392.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost per unit in each case and then state which is the better buy, the following calculations must be performed:

6kg of potatoes for $ 2.45:

2.45 / 6 = 0.408

15 kg of potatoes for $ 5.9:

5.90 / 15 = 0.393

10 kg of potatoes for $ 3.92:

3.92 / 10 = 0.392

Thus, the better buy is to buy 10 kilograms of potatoes at $ 3.92, since each kilogram costs $ 0.392.
