v varies directly with height means
v/h=k were k is a constant
or also h/v=k where k is a constant (this is a different k than previous)
so if h=12 and v=300 then
h/v=12/300=1/25=k
so the relationhip could be h/v=1/25
if you di v/h, then
v/h=300/12=25/1=25=k
so the relationship could be v/h=25

Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2x + 7 - x when x = 3
2(3) + 7 - 3
6 + 7 - 3
6 + 4
10
Oldest = 2 times Youngest -> O = 2*Y
Middle = Youngest + 5 -> M = Y+5
All of them together is 57 -> O + M + Y = 57
So you have these three equations:
(1) O = 2*Y
(2) M = Y+5
(3) O + M + Y = 57
Now you want to reduce the number of variables. You can change the second equation to be Y = M-5 and then plug in "M-5" wherever there is currently a Y:
(4) O = 2*(M-5) = 2*M - 10
(5) O + M + (M-5) = 57
which becomes O + 2M = 62
Then you plug in the "O" equation (4) into (5) which gives you
(2M-10) + 2M = 62 which reduces to 4M = 72.
So now I know M is 18.
I can now plug that into my other equations:
(4) O = 2*18 - 10 which means O = 26.
Now I plug that into (1) from the top:
26 = 2*Y which becomes 13 = Y
So now I have O, Y, and M
Oldest is 26
Middle is 18
Youngest is 13
Reading the sentence again, you can see that this makes sense.
