Lisa is 10 centimeters taller than her friend Ian. Ian is 14 centimeters taller than Jim. Every month, their heights increase by

months the sum of Ian's and Jim's heights will be 170 centimeters more than Lisa's height. How tall is Ian now?

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

<span>this is pretty hard but here is your answer 
</span>

y = x^2 - 10x + 25 - 25

<span> y = (x-5)^2 - 25 </span>

<span> y+25 = (x-5)^2 </span>

<span> x-5 = +/-sqrt(y+25) </span>

 

<span> And you get TWO inverses: </span>

 

<span> x = 5 + sqrt(y+25), for x>=5 </span>

<span> x = 5 - sqrt(y+25), for x<=5</span>

A piece of equipment moves 16.8 yards in 12 minutes how many feet does it move per second?
I am Lyosha [343]

16.8yards times 3ft/1yd=50.4ft


1minute=60 seconds

12minutes times 60seconds/1min=720seconds


feet per second=50.4ft/720sec=0.07ft/sec

Emma's sister is nine years older than Emma. Their combined ages add up to 49.How old is Emma. write and equation and solve
Genrish500 [490]
E= Emma's age
emma's sister's age= e+9 (emma's age plus 9)

e+9=49
(isolate your variable) 
e+9-9=49-9
e=40
Emma is 40 years old
To check: Emma's sister is 9 years older right? take emmas age 40 plus the nine more years and you still get the total of 49! hope that helps good luck

Exams are approaching and Helen is allocating time to studying for exams. She feels that with the appropriate amount of studying
svp [43]

Answer: 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M = Event of getting an A in Marketing class.

S = Event of getting an A in Spanish class,

i.e. P(M) = 0.80 , P(S) = 0.60 and P(M∩S)=0.45

Required probability = P(neither M nor S)

= P(M'∩S')

= P(M∪S)'                                 [∵P(A'∩B')=P(A∪B)']

=1- P(M∪S)                               [∵P(A')=1-P(A)]

= 1- (P(M)+P(S)- P(M∩S))   [∵P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)]

= 1- (0.80+0.60-0.45)

= 1- 0.95

= 0.05

hence, the probability that Helen does not get an A in either class= 0.05
