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!!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This function I believe has one x intercept which is (-2/13,0)
Area = length x width
24 = (n-3) x 2
24 = 2n -6
2n = 30
n = 15
Length is 15-3 =12, width is 2
24 = 12 x 2
