Answer:

448

Step-by-step explanation:

This is  a proportion question. Keep the heights on one side of the proportion and the shadow length on the other.

height ratio  shadow ratio

40 cm / x = 25 / 280             Cross multiply

25x = 40 * 280                      Combine

25x = 11200                            Divide by 25

x = 11200/25

x = 448 cm

The height of the corn plant is 448 cm

Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations.Choose the correct ordered pair. - x + y = - 2 and 2 x - 3y = 4
Zolol [24]

Answer:(2,0) x=2,y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your system by elimination.

−x+y=−2;2x−3y=4

Multiply the first equation by 2,and multiply the second equation by 1.

2(−x+y=−2)

1(2x−3y=4)

Becomes:

−2x+2y=−4

2x−3y=4

Add these equations to eliminate x:

−y=0

Then solve−y=0 for y:

−y=0

−y/−1 =0/−1

(Divide both sides by -1)

y=0

Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.

Write down an original equation:

−x+y=−2

Substitute0foryin−x+y=−2:

−x+0=−2

−x=−2(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−x/−1 = −2/−1

(Divide both sides by -1)

x=2
