To solve problems like this you can either graph or solve mathematically. To do the ladder we need to solve for one variable at a time. So lets cancel one variable out.
Multiply equation 1 by 2
This will give 4x-2y=14
Now we can get rid of y by subtracting 2 from 1
This will give x=9
Plug back in to either equation, i will use equation 2
3(9)-2y=5 simplify
-2y=-22 solve
Y=11
162 plants, if 60% of the plants live you can set it up like this: 60/100 = X/270, to find X, you cross multiply and divide by 100
Answer:
son = 10 , father = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Five years ago the age of son be x years and age of father be 7x years
Present age of son =x+5
Present age of father =7x+5
5 years later their age will (x+10) and (7x+10)
∴7x+10=3(x+10)
7x−3x=20
4x=20
x=5
So, the present age of son=x+5=5+5=10years
and the present age of father=7x+5=35+5=40years

Smallest side XYZ/ Smallest side ABC = Longest side XYZ/ Longest side ABC
Let longest side XYZ be x
280/112 = x/144
x = (280/112)×144
x = 360
Option D will be your answer
Hope it helped!
