Attached the solution with work shown.
1298 - 4x =171 + 3x
Add 4x to both sides
1298 = 171 + 7x
Subtract 171 from both sides
1127 = 7x
Divide by 7 on both sides
x = 161
They will both say the number 161 at the same time.
Answer:
Therefore after 3 years the height of these tree will be same.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Type A is 2 feet tall and grows at a rate of 17 inches.
Type B is 10 feet tall and is growing at a rate of 5 inches.
1 feet = 12 inches,
2 feet= (12×2) inches = 24 inches
5 feet= (12×5) inches = 60 inches
Let after t years, the height of these tree will be same.
After t years, the height of type A is =(24+17t)
After t years, the height of type B is =(60+5t)
According to the problem,
24+17t=60+5t
⇒17t-5t=60-24
⇒12t = 36
⇒t = 
⇒t=3
Therefore after 3 years the height of these tree will be same.
Answer:
range you can calculate maximum value - minimum value 78- 46=32
9.6 divided by 2 = 4.8
So there is 4.8 pounds of trailmix in each bag
