Answer:
N+F=42 & F+3N=70 System Solved: Natalie is 14 and Fred is 28
Step-by-step explanation:
Using variables N=natalies age and F=Freds age
N+F=42 ----> N=42-F (take this and plug it into the other equation)
F+3N=70 so F+3(42-F)=70 [simplify] F+126-3F=70 [further simplify]
-2F=-56 [divide -56 by -2] F=28 [then plug this number into the orig. equation]
So N+28=42 or N=14.

i attached my work, hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
this creates 2 similar triangles.
that means all angles are the same. and all the side lengths of one triangle correlate to the corresponding side lengths of the other triangle by the same multiplication factor.
her shadow is 23.05 - 18.9 = 4.15 m long.
the factor between the shadow lengths is then
4.15 × f = 23.05
f = 23.05 / 4.15 = 5.554216867...
the same factor now applies to the relation of the heights :
1.45 × 5.554216867... = 8.053614458... m
rounded the tree is 8.05 m tall.
So J is jelly beans and T is trail mix :)
so J= $3.50
T= $1.50
