Let f be the height of the fir trees
Let p be the height of the pine trees

We know from the problem that
f + p = 21  and 4f = 24 + p
rearrange the 2nd equation to get p = 4f - 24 and substitute into the other equation

so...
f + 4f - 24 = 21
5f - 24 = 21
5f = 45
f = 9 - height of the fir tree

substitute back into the 1st equation
9 + p = 21
p = 12 - height of the pine tree

Solve for x: 3x+2=11
Vlad [161]

Answer:

X= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you must first subtract 2 from 11, to get the 3x isolated.

You'll then have 3x=9, but the x is not alone, so you subtract the 3 from both sides. This leaves you with 3
