Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets assume the number Peggy is thinking of be "x".
Now as given, when twice the number is added to three times one more than the number. We can write it as
∴ 
--- Equation 1
Again, it is given that Peggy gets the same result as when she multiplies four times one less than the number.
∴ 
-- equation 2
Next, we can equate both the equation 1 and 2 as it is given that result is same.
Let´s distribute 3 into 
and 4 into 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Subtract both side by 4x and 3
∴ 
∴ Peggy was thinking of -7
9•44=396
396/54=7.3 repeating
Therefore y=7.33
H = 27 m. Since these are scales of each other, you can solve for h by creating a ratio of the two lengths. Divide 36 by 4 to find the scale for the tree. 36/4 = 9. This means that the large triangle is 9 times larger than the small one. Now to find h, multiply the height of the small triangle by the scale. 3 x 9 = 27. This means the height, h, of the large triangle is 27 m. You can check this by dividing the length of each triangle by their height. If they are the same number, the scale is correct. 36/27 = 1.33, 4/3 = 1.33 ✅
