44 is the sum of 10 and Diane's height.

Question

hi

Answer 1

Hello, thank you for taking the time to post your question!

I think it just wants you to use the information to set up an equation … if you let “h” be Diane’s height, the equation here is

10 + h = 44

Solving for “h” algebraically then yields

h = 44 – 10 = 34

so Diane’s height here is 34

I hope that helps you get moving in a better direction on this type of question! Feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions beyond that :)

Answer 2

Let Diane's height be x.

We can now write the equation:

44 = 10 + x

To isolate x, we subtract 10 from both sides of the equation. This leaves us with:

34 = x.
