Question

Write and solve an equation to solve the problem. Lisa is 4 centimeters taller than her friend lan. lan is 8 centimeters taller than Jim. Every month, their helghts Increase by 2 centimeters. In 4 months, the sum of lan's and Jim's helghts will be 180 centimeters more than Lisa's height. How tall is lan now? Let h be lan's height today in centimeters.

(h+8)+( ____ )+8=( ____ )+8+ 180

lan is ____ centimeters tall now.

Answer 1

L = I + 4

I = j + 8 --> j= i-8

They grow 8 cm

I+j +16 = L+8+180

I + j = L + 188-16

I+j=L+172

I + I-8 = i+4+172

2I -8 = I + 176

I-8=176

I=184

J=176

L=188
