Answer:

Natalie is 15

Fred is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

You would first create equations to represent the problem. You would then solve for a variable (I chose to solve for y). I subtracted each equation from each other which helped me isolate y, which equaled 15. I then substituted y for 15 which allowed me to isolate x, which gave me 24.

(the equations)

x + y = 39

x + 3y = 69

(solving for y)

x + 3y = 69 - x + y = 39

x-x +3y -y = 69 - 39

2y = 30

y = 15

(solving for x)

x + 15 = 39

x +15 -15 = 39 -15

x = 24

The heights (in cm) and arm spans (in cm) of 31 students were measured. The association between x(height) and y(arm span) is sho
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

27.385 cm longer would we expect Mike's arm span to be than George's.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find how many centimeters longer would we expect Mike's arm span to be than George's using the equation:

y= 4.5x + 0.977 x

where y= arm span

and x= height

Given:

Mike's height=x = 175 cm

so Mike's arm span= y= 4.5 x + 0.977 x

                                    = 4.5* (175) + 0.977* (175)

                                    = 787.5 + 170.975

                                    = 958.475 cm

George's height = x = 170 cm

so George's arm span= y= 4.5 x + 0.977 x

                                    = 4.5* (170) + 0.977* (170)

                                    = 765 + 166.09

                                    = 931.09 cm

Mike's arm span longer than George's = Mike's arm span - George's arm span

                                                                 = 958.475 - 931.09

                                                                 = 27.385 cm.
