First, you need to convert 5 1/4 feet to inches. 5.25 x 12 = 63 inches. The ratio of the height of the model to the height of the actual statue in simplest form is 1/42. I don't know if this is correct but I hope this helps you in any way.
Maybe it’s y=1x-2. I hope this helps since we have no clue what the x is in the question we just assume it’s own
Let the three consecutive equals:
x, x+1, x+2
sum:
x+(x+1)+(x+2) = 36
3x + 3 = 36
x+1 = 36/3
x+1 = 12
x=12-1
x=11
