The heights (in cm) and arm spans (in cm) of 31 students were measured. The association between (height) and (arm span) is shown

sergeinik [125]

Answer: Mike's arm span is 7.165 cm longer than the George's one.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the association between height and arm span is modeled by the equation

y = 4.5 + 0.977*x

where y is height and x is arm span.

Mike is 172 cm tall, so his arm span is:

172cm = 4.5 + 0.977*x

x = (172 - 4.5)/0.977 = 171.443 cm

and George is 165 cm tall, so his arm span is:

x = (165 - 4.5)/0.977 = 164.278 cm

Then the difference between their arm span is:

171.443cm - 164.278cm = 7.165 cm

So Mike's arm span is 7.165 cm longer than the George's one.

How do I solve for x?

notka56 [123]

Solving:
$\frac{3+4x}{2} + \frac{5-x}{3} = \frac{29}{6}$
Make the Least Common Multiple (2,3,6)
$2,3,6\:|2$
$1,3,3\:|3$
$1,1,1\:|\underline{2*3=6}$

Replace denominators and resolve:
 $\frac{3+4x}{2} + \frac{5-x}{3} = \frac{29}{6}$
$\frac{3(3+4x)}{6} + \frac{2(5-x)}{6} = \frac{29}{6}$
Cancel the dominators
$\frac{3(3+4x)}{\diagup\!\!\!\!6} + \frac{2(5-x)}{\diagup\!\!\!\!6} = \frac{29}{\diagup\!\!\!\!6}$
$3(3+4x) + 2(5-x) = 29$
$9 + 12x + 10 - 2x = 29$
$12x - 2x = 29 - 9 - 10$
$10x = 20 - 10$
$10x = 10$
$x = \frac{10}{10}$
$\boxed{\boxed{x = 1}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$
