The <span>ratio of adam's height to sam's height is 4:3. Therefore, Sam's height is 3/4 of adam's height. This is done by applying rules on ratios. We do as follows:
4 / 3 = adam's height / sam's height
sam's height = (3/4) adam's height
Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
Because both answers equal y, we can set them equal to each other. So, -8x=-5x-9. Add five over to get -3x=-9. Divide and x=3. Then plug 3 in to solve for y. -8(3)=24. The ordered pair is (3,24).
The answer would be about 5.8
