If and only if it is a proportional relationship, the problem can be solved by creating a proportion of B1/T1=B2/T2. This can also be expressed as 4.5/3.5=5.4/x given the values. You must cross multiply, so 4.5x=3.5(5.4). This simplifies to x=4.2. So, the tail length would be 4.2 feet.
Hope this helps.

Answer:
12 pints
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 24 students & each one gets 1 cup, so you will need 24 cups total. There are 2 cups in a pint. You divided the 24 cups you need by 2 cups in a pint to get the answer of 12 pints.
You can double check: 12 pints converted to cups (2 cups in a pint) is 12 x2 = 24 cups
