Answer: The height of  fir tree is 9 meters and the height of pine tree is 12 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The combined height of one fir tree and one pine tree = 21 meters.

Since, the height of 4 fir trees stacked on top of each other is 24 meters taller than one pine tree.

Let x be the height of fir tree and y be the height of pine tree.

Then we get the following equations:

x+y=21...............(1)\\4x-y=24.........(2)

Adding (1) and (2) we get

5x=45\\\Rightarrow\ x=9

Substitute the value of x in (1), we get

9+y=21\\\Rightarrow\ y=21-9=12

Hence, the height of  fir tree is 9 meters and the height of pine tree is 12 meters.

Joe earned money for baby-sitting , he spent 1/4 of the money on a guitar then he gave 1/4 to charity , if he has $108 left how
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

216 US dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount he earned for babysitting be x

He spent 1/4 of x on guitar=(1/4)×x=1/4x

He gave 1/4 of x to charity= (1/4)×x=1/4x

Equation 1

Total amount left=(Total amount earned -Total amount spent)

Total amount earned=x

Total amount spent=(Spent on Guitar+Spent on Charity)=(1/4x)+(1/4x)=1/2x=0.5x

Total amount left=108 US dollars

Substituting in equation 1

108=(x-0,5x)

Solving

0.5x/0.5=108/0.5

x=216 US dollars

He started with 216 US dollars

Identify the relationship and solve for x
Salsk061 [2.6K]

These are alternate exterior angles

they alternate (or cross) the traversal (the center line)

and they are exterior (they are both outside)

and they are equal

100 = x + 105 subtract 105 from both sides

-105       -105

-5 = x

x = -5
