Answer:
2/7
Step-by-step explanation:
You do the number it goes up, 1 to 3 in this case, over the number it goes sideways, 3 to -4. My teacher always said rise over run to help us remember.
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
Answer:
a very nice qualification a very nice
I think -2/7.
-2/7 is closer to 0 which is neither positive nor negative.
-5/7 is closer to a whole negative number.
All you have to do is multiply 3 by 3, and your answer would be 9.
