Answer:  Ian's height = x+14 = 69+14 = 83 cm

Explanation :

Let the height of Jim be x

Let the  height of Ian be x+4

Let the height of Lisa be x+4+10=x+14

Since their heights increase by 2cm every months

so after 7 months ,

Jim's  height = x+14

Ian's  height= x+4+14=x+18

Lisa's  height= x+14+14=x+28

According to question,

Sum of Ian's and Jim's height = 170cm

x+18+x+14 = 170\\2x+32 =170\\2x =170-32\\2x = 138

⇒x = \frac{138}{2}

⇒ x= 69cm

∴ Ian's height = x+14 = 69+14 = 83 cm

Answer:

Ian is 194 cm tall now

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of Jim be x

Now we are given that Ian is 14 cm taller than jim.

So,height of Ian be x+14

Now we are given that Lisa is 10 cm taller than her friend ian.

So, height of Lisa be x+14+10=x+24

Since their heights increase by 2 cm every months

So after 7 months ,

Jim's  height = x+(7 \times2)=x+14

Ian's  height=x+14+(7 \times2)=x+28

Lisa's  height=x+24+(7 \times2)=x+38

Now we are given that In 7 months, the sum of ian's and jim's height will be 170 cm more than lisa's height.

So, x+14+x+28=x+38+170

x+42=208

x=208-42

x=166

So, Ian's height = x+28 =166+28 = 194 cm

Hence  Ian is 194 cm tall now

Dr. Potter provides vaccinations against polio and measles. Each polio vaccination consists of 444 doses, and each measles vacci
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

37 polio vaccinations and 23 measles vaccination.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of polio vaccination given=x

Let the number of measles vaccination given=y

Dr. Potter gave a total of 60 vaccinations

x+y=60

Since each polio vaccination consists of 4 doses, and each measles vaccination consists of 2 doses. A total of 184 doses was given out.

4x+2y=184

To find the values of x and y, we solve the two equations simultaneously.

x+y=60             (1)

4x+2y=184        (2)

From (1), x=60-y

Substitute x=60-y into equation 2.

4x+2y=184

4(60-y)+2y=184

240-4y+2y=184

240-184=4y-2y

56=2y

Divode both sides by 2

y=23

Recall earlier that x=60-y

x=60-23=37

Dr Potter gave 37 polio vaccinations and 23 measles vaccination.
