1st step would be to combine like terms so you would have
4p-7 = 13
The distance from the person to the mirror is 5 ft. The distance from the mirror to the giraffe is 15 ft.
15/5 = 3
Multiply the height of the person by 3:
5 ft = 60 inches 60+3 = 63 inches
63 x 3 = 189 inches
189/12 = 15.75 ft = 15 feet 9 inches
The giraffe is 15 ft 9 inches tall

Step-by-step explanation:
Dixon is 6 feet tall, Ariadne is 4 feet tall by proportion.
What in mathematics is a proportion?
- A proportion is an equation that sets two ratios at the same value.
- For instance, you could express the ratio as follows: 1: 3 if there is 1 boy and 3 girls (for every one boy there are 3 girls) There are 1 in 4 boys and 3 in 4 girls. 0.25 are male (by dividing 1 by 4)
We can use the proportion.
We already know that Dixon is 6 ft tall and that his shadow is 9 ft long.
Also we know that the shadow of his sister is 6 ft long.
6 : x = 9 : 6, or 6 / x = 9 / 6.
After that we will cross multiply : 9 * x = 6 * 6,
9 x = 36 ,
x = 36 /9,
x = 4.
Ariadne is 4 feet tall.

The complete question is -
Dixon and his little sister Ariadne stand next to each other on the playground on a sunny afternoon. Their mother measures their shadows. Dixon's shadow is 9 feet long and Ariadne's shadow is 6 feet long. If Dixon is 6 feet tall, how tall is Ariadne?
Answer:
y = 9.50 + 6.00n
Step-by-step explanation:
This equation shows that the base rice that you must pay is $9.50 (the cost of your ticket). $6.00n represents the cost of however many additional tickets you purchase for n friends. Say 3 friends decide to come, your n value is 3.
You would need to do the following to determine the price you need to pay for 3 friends:
6.00(3) = 18.00 (this is how much you'd pay for 3 friends)
You must add your ticket price to $18.00 to find y (the total amount you must pay for yourself and your 3 friends). So you must do the following:
y = 9.50 + 6.00(3)
y = 9.50 + 18.00
y = 27.50 (this is the total price you'll pay for everyone attending
Hope this helps :)
