Answer:

Height of garden view hotel = 235 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

let

height of the plaza = a

height of Garden view Hotel  = 2a - 17

combined height = 361 ft

The combined height can be represented as follows:

a + (2a - 17) = 361

3a - 17 = 361

collect like terms

3a= 361 + 17

3a = 378

divide both sides by 3

3a/3 = 378/3

a = 378/3

a =  126 ft

Height of garden view hotel = 2 × 126 - 17

Height of garden view hotel = 2 × 126 - 17

Height of garden view hotel = 252 - 17

Height of garden view hotel = 235 ft

Answer:

The height of Gardenview hotel is 38 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem let first suppose Garden View Hotel is "x" and the Plaza Hotel is "y" so the first equation as it says in the question will be 17x- 2y =0 and the second equation will be their combined height which is x+y =361 . Now let's solve both the equations simultaneously to get the height of GardenView Hotel.

17_x - 2_{y} =0 (1)

x + y = 361   (2)

Now multiply the second whole equation by 2 so that we can eliminate y from both the equations , after doing that the final equation is 19x = 772 and if we calculate x from this we will get the height of gardenview hotel which is 38 feet.

Marina CMI [18]
Equation would be: 25.15 - 1.75x
Where, x = number of days.

Substitute for x = 3, 
= 25.15 - 1.75(3)
= 25.15 - 5.25
= 19.90

In short, Your Answer would be $19.90

Hope this helps!

Q2. In a camp food was enough for 400 people for 23 days. If 60 more people joined the camp, find the number of days the food wi
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Q2)

We have food for 400 people, and it will last for 23 days.

Then we have an inverse relation, where the number of days decreases as the number of people increases, this means that we have a relationship like:

23 days = K/400 people.

Then we get:

(23 days)*(400 people) = K = 9200 days*people.

Now if we increase the number of people by 60, we get.

people = 460

Then the number of days that this will last is:

D = (9200 days*people)/460 people = 20 days.

The food will last for 20 days.

Q3) We have a proportional relationship (y = k*x) such that y = 40 when x = 200, then we get:

40 = k*200

With this, we can find the value of k

40/200 = k = 0.2

Then the proportional relationship is:

y = 0.2*x

a) We need to replace x by 15.

y = 0.2*15 = 3

y = 3

b) We need to replace y by 8.

8 = 0.2*x

8/0.2 = x = 40

x = 40

Q3) y is inversely proportional to x (y = k/x), and y = 8 when x = 30.

Then we get:

8 = k/30

Then the value of k is:

8*30 = k = 240

then the relationship is:

y = 240/x

a) we need to replace x by 4

y = 240/4 = 60

y = 60

b) we need to replace y by 360

360 = 240/x

360*x = 240

x = 240/360 = 0.666...

x = 0.666...
