Answer:
311.6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, let's call:
k = Keith's height
n = nephew's height
Since the ratio is 15:7, we have
(1)
Then, Keith's height is increased by 16%, so the new height of Keith is
(2)
While the nephew's height is doubled:
(3)
We also know that Keith is now 34 cm taller than his nephew, so
(4)
Substituting (2) and (3) into (4), we get

And substituting (1),

Solving for n,

So the current height of the nephew is:

While Keith's current height is

So their total current height is

Answer:
x = 1
y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use either substitution or elimination for this problem. I will use substitution.
Step 1: Replace x in the 1st equation
-10(y-4) + 3y = 5
-10y + 40 + 3y = 5
-7y = -35
y = 5
Step 2: Plug <em>y </em>into an original equation to find <em>x</em>
x = 5 - 4
x = 1
And you have your final answers!
42% = 42/100 = 0.42
0.43
17/40 = 0.425
---------------------------
42% 17/40 0.43
M is also the midpoint of the diagonal BD.
In a parallelogram, the diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other. That means that midpoint of one of the diagonals is also the midpoint of the other diagonal.
