Monique has two artificial christmas trees in her apartme t the taller tree is 12 inches shorter than 5 times the height of the smaller tree of she stacked the shorter tree on top of the taller tree they would be a total of 60 inches tall find the heights of the taller tree and the shorter tree

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

First, we have to expresses each sentence into an equation

Where is the taller tree, and is the smaller tree.

This relation expresses that the taller tree is 12 inches shorter than 5 times the smaller tree.

Because they sum of both height is 60 inches.

Now, we replace the first equation into the second one, and solve for

Then, we replace this value in one equation to find the other variable

Therefore, the taller tree is 48 inches, and the smaller tree is 12 inches height.

5   1/4   miles per hour

step-by-step explanation:

15   3/4 / 3 = 5   1/4

it will cost dollar $540

the living room is 3 which means if we divide 325/3 then we get $108

therefore if 1part of the living room cost $108 and 3 costed $325

then total 5part of the room will cost 5*108 which gives $540
