(1 & 2/3) ft = (1 ft) + (2/3 ft)
(1 & 2/3) ft = 12 inches + 12*(2/3) inches
(1 & 2/3) ft = 12 inches + 8 inches
(1 & 2/3) ft = 20 inches
If the tree grows 5 inches per year, then it will take 4 years to get to 20 inches since 5*4 = 20. You can also divide to get 20/5 = 4.
So it takes 4 years for the tree to grow 1&2/3 feet tall.
Answer:
5. is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Darlene's dog's weightlet y = Leah's dog's weight x = 5yx + y = 84 so, 5y + y = 84, which means 6y = 84 so, y = 84/6 = 14x = 5(14) = 70 Darlene's dog = 70 lbs, Leah's dog = 14 lbs.<span> </span>
