B = 4/3/4
L = b - 1/3

L = 4/3/4 - 1/3
L = 4/5/12

Let

x------> height of Leon's older brother

y------> height of Leon

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

4\frac{3}{4}\ ft=\frac{4*4+3}{4}= \frac{19}{4}\ ft

we know that

x=\frac{19}{4}\ ft -----> equation A

y=x-\frac{1}{3} -----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

y=\frac{19}{4}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{53}{12}\ ft

Convert to mixed number

\frac{53}{12}=\frac{48}{12}+\frac{5}{12}=4\frac{5}{12}\ ft

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

4\frac{5}{12}\ ft

How can you tell if a point is a solution to a system of equations?
Anna35 [415]

Answer: you have to substitute them into the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

example: x = 2y - 6

lets say you test 4/5 so it would be 4 = 2(5) - 6

this equals 4 = 10 - 6 which is true

so that is how you test to see if the equation is right

remember the first number goes to "x" and the second one goes to y

hope this helps mark me brainliest if you can

The half-life of caffeine in a healthy adult is 4.8 hours. Jeremiah drinks 18 ounces of caffeinated
statuscvo [17]

We want to see how long will take a healthy adult to reduce the caffeine in his body to a 60%. We will find that the answer is 3.55 hours.

We know that the half-life of caffeine is 4.8 hours, this means that for a given initial quantity of coffee A, after 4.8 hours that quantity reduces to A/2.

So we can define the proportion of coffee that Jeremiah has in his body as:

P(t) = 1*e^{k*t}

Such that:

P(4.8 h) = 0.5 = 1*e^{k*4.8}

Then, if we apply the natural logarithm we get:

Ln(0.5) = Ln(e^{k*4.8})

Ln(0.5) = k*4.8

Ln(0.5)/4.8 = k = -0.144

Then the equation is:

P(t) = 1*e^{-0.144*t}

Now we want to find the time such that the caffeine in his body is the 60% of what he drank that morning, then we must solve:

P(t) = 0.6 =  1*e^{-0.144*t}

Again, we use the natural logarithm:

Ln(0.6) = Ln(e^{-0.144*t})

Ln(0.6) = -0.144*t

Ln(0.6)/-0.144 = t = 3.55

So after 3.55 hours only the 60% of the coffee that he drank that morning will still be in his body.
