Let Lisa's height be x, Ian's be y and Jim's be z
x = 10 + y . . . (1)
y = 14 + z . . . (2)
y + 14 + z + 14 = 170 + x + 14
y + z - x = 170 + 14 - 28 = 156 . . . (3)
From (2), z = y - 14 . . . (4)
Putting (1) and (4) into (3) gives,
y + y - 14 - 10 - y = 156
y = 156 + 24 = 180

Therefore, Ian's height is 180 centimeters

What is the true solution to l n 20 + l n 5 = 2 l n x x = 5 x = 10 x = 50 x = 100
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

l n 20 + l n 5 = 2 l n x

ln (20×5) = ln x²

ln(100) = lnx²

100 = x²

x = +/- 10

Since logs of negative numebrs don't exist, we reject -10
