The garden view hotel is 235 feet tall
Step-by-step explanation:
The given is:
- The garden view hotel is seventeen less than twice the height of the plaza hotel
- Their combined height is 361 feet
We need to find the height of the garden view hotel
Assume that the height of garden view hotel is x feet and the height of the plaza hotel is y feet
∵ The height of the garden view hotel = x feet
∵ The height of the plaza hotel = y feet
∵ The height of the garden view hotel is 17 less than twice the
height of the plaza hotel
- That means x is less than 2 × y by 17, equate x by the difference
of 2 × y and 17
∴ x = 2y - 17 ⇒ (1)
∵ Their combined height = 361 feet
∴ x + y = 361
- Find y in terms of x by subtraction x from both sides
∴ y = 361 - x ⇒ (2)
Substitute y in equation (1) by equation (2)
∵ x = 2(361 - x) - 17
- Simplify the right hand side
∴ x = 722 - 2x - 17
- Add like terms
∴ x = 705 - 2x
- Add 2x to both sides
∴ 3x = 705
- Divide both sides by 3
∴ x = 235

The answer is -7.2 and -36/5 hope this helps
divide 187.50 by 12.5 to find hourly rate
187.50/12.50 = 15 dollars per hour
now divide 465 by 15 for number of hours
465/15 = 31 hours
double check by multiplying 31 by 15 ( 31 x 15 = 465)
Well because only one is needed cause the answer is 0.1
