Beth’s brother is 140% of Beth’s height. If Beth’s brother measures 140cm, how tall is Beth?

100 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the height of Beth

and y be the height of Beth's Brother

By 1st Condition

y = 140% * x

y = (140/100) * x

y = 1.4 x (Eq 1)

By 2nd Condition

y = 140

Put the value of y in the equation 1

140 = 1.4 *x

x = 140 / 1.4

x = 100 cm

it could be 1,3 and more others to create a cylinder.

step-by-step explanation:

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18
