Lan is 146 centimeters tall now.
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
Let, Lan's current height is 
centimeters
As Lisa is 6 centimeters taller than Lan and Lan is 10 centimeters taller than Jim, so Lisa's current height = 
centimeters and Jim's current height = 
centimeters.
Every month, their heights increase by 2 centimeters.
So, after 5 months.....
Lan's height = 
centimeters,
Lisa's height = 
centimeters and
Jim's height = 
centimeters
Given that, the sum of Ian's and Jim's heights will be 140 centimeters more than Lisa's height in 5 months. So the equation will be....
So, the current height of Lan is 146 centimeters.
Since 3 ounces=21 g of protein, you would multiply 21 g x 3, because 6 ounces would = 42g. using that principle 3×3 = 9 & 21×3 = 63.
A) Tonya bought 3 games at X price, so 3X would be total amount.
B) Tony's cost was 0.50 less than X, so x-0.50, he bought 4 games, so he spent 4(x-0.50).
C) Set those to equal to solve for x:
3x = 4(x-0.50)
D) Solve:
3x = 4(x-0.50)
Distribute:
3x = 4x - 2
Subtract 4x from both sides:
-X = -2
Multiply both sides by -1:
X = 2
E) Since X is the amount Tonya paid per game, Tony paid X - 0.50, so Tony paid 2 - 0.50 = $1.50 per game.
Check:
Tonya: 3x = 3(2) = $6 total
Tony: 4(x-0.50) = 4(2.00 - 0.50) = 4(1.50) = $6 total
In the fourth step, he didn’t put the “negative” sign for 4.
