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.

kiruha [24]
Switching the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement and negating both. For example, the contrapositive of "If it is raining then the grass is wet" is "If the grass is not wet then it is not raining." Note: As in the example, the contrapositive<span> of any true proposition is also true.

Therefore, the answer would be:

2x + 3y = ?
2(-2) +3(3) = -4 + 9 = 5 so ? is 5
