et long. What is the height of the tree?
2 answers:
Answer:
30ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Proportion/ratio question
Tree : Your friend
27ft : 4.5ft
? : 5ft
Formula given divided by the original or missing value equivalent
g/o = 5/4.5 = 1.11111 multiplier
Then use multiplier for the tree given value.
27 x 1.111111 = 29.999997
= 30ft
Answer:
the tree is 30 ft tall
Step-by-step explanation:
27/x = 4.5/5
cross multiply
(4.5)(x) = (27)(5)
4.5x = 135
divide the entire equation by 4.5 to isolate x
135/4.5 = 30
x = 30

2 6/8 + 1 4/8 + 3 3/8
2 + 1 + 3 = 6
6/8 + 4/8 + 3/8 = 13/8
So 6 13/8 or 7 5/8
Answer:
D.3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+2y=10(given)
2x+y=5
y=5-2x-----(1)
y=2x-1------(2)(given)
Since the left side of the equations are the the same,
5-2x=2x-1
4x=6
x=1.5
Sub x=1.5 into eq(1),
y = 5-2(1.5) = 5-3 = 2
so, x+y = 1.5+2 = 3.5
