Let the height of the tree be x, then
18 inches / 3 feet 9 inches = x / 21 feet 3 inches
18 inches / 45 inches = x / 255 inches
45x = 18 x 255 = 4590
x = 4590 / 45 = 102

Therefore, the tree is 102 inches = 8 feet, 6 inches tall

What values of P and Q have exactly no solutions Px+40=Qx+20
Novosadov [1.4K]

You can not solve this because the values are different... If the values were both Px and Px or Qx and Qx you will be able to solve the problem but you can not according to the fact that they aren't the same letters. So therefore, this equation has no solution.


Hope this helped!!!

To solve this problem we must know that when any two lines intersect , a pair of opposite angles from the figure Will be equal
so that means that
4x + 20 = 3x + 55
we can subtract twenty from each side
4x + (20 - 20) = 3x + (55 - 20)
4x = 3x + 35
now we can subtract like terms
4x - 3x = (3x - 3x) + 35
so we can get the final answer as
1x = 35

Leto [7]

Answer:

$112.80

Step-by-step explanation:

You are buying 8 student tickets, each costing $10.68. Multiply 8 with 10.68:

10.68 x 8 = 85.44

You are buying another 2 adult tickets, each costing $13.68. Multiply 2 with 13.68:

13.68 x 2 = 27.36

Next, add the two costs together:

27.36 + 85.44 = 112.80

$112.80 is your total cost.
