Let J represent Jim
A represent Alvin
B represent Becca
Jim is 3 inches taller than Alvin, and then we translate this into an equation which is:
J=3+A
Alvin is twice as tall as Becca, and also translate thus into an equation:
A=2B or B=1/2A
Next,
The sum of their heights is 153 inches which is:
J+A+B=153
B=1/2A
J=3+A
Substitute the three of them to get this new equation:
3+A+A+1/2A=153
3+2.5A=153
Subtract 3 to each side
3+2.5A-3=153-3
2.5A=150
Divided 2.5 to each side
2.5A/2.5=150/2.5
A=60 inches
J=3+A
J=3+60
J=63 inches, so Jim is 63 inches tall. As a result, D is your final answer. Hope it help!

0.0000016

Step-by-step explanation:

(8×10^-3)×(2×10^-4)

=8×10^-3 × 2×10^-4

= (8×2) × (10^-3 × 10^-4)

=16 × 10^(-3) + (-4)

= 16 × 10^ (-3-4)

=16× 10^(-7)

Solve for x.<br> X^2-6x+10=2
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

x = 2, 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out quadratic

x² - 6x + 10 = 2

Step 2: Subtract 2 on both sides

x² - 6x + 8 = 0

Step 3: Factor

(x - 4)(x - 2) = 0

Step 4: Find roots

x - 4 = 0

x = 4

x - 2 = 0

x = 2

1. Keisha needs to make at least 28 costumes for the school play. Since she can make 4 costumes each week, Keisha plans to work
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

1. Let n represents the number of weeks she needs to make at least 28 costumes,

Since, she can make 4 costumes each week,

\implies n \geq \frac{28}{4}

\implies n \geq 7-----(1)

i.e. In number line closed circle on 7 and shaded right from 7.

2. If the maximum time taken by her is 10 weeks,

⇒ n ≤ 10 ----(2),

From equation (1) and (2),

7\leq n\leq 10

I.e. closed circle on both 7 and 10 and shaded right from 7 and shaded left from 10.
