Lan is 146 centimeters tall now.
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
Let, Lan's current height is 
centimeters
As Lisa is 6 centimeters taller than Lan and Lan is 10 centimeters taller than Jim, so Lisa's current height = 
centimeters and Jim's current height = 
centimeters.
Every month, their heights increase by 2 centimeters.
So, after 5 months.....
Lan's height = 
centimeters,
Lisa's height = 
centimeters and
Jim's height = 
centimeters
Given that, the sum of Ian's and Jim's heights will be 140 centimeters more than Lisa's height in 5 months. So the equation will be....
So, the current height of Lan is 146 centimeters.
The correct answer is 37.5.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
that seems like the best option to me
Make a system of equations:
0.10x + 0.25y = 3.95
x + y = 23
x + y = 23
Subtract 'y' to both sides:
x = -y + 23
Plug in -y + 23 for 'x' in the first equation:
0.10(-y + 23) + 0.25y = 3.95
Distribute 0.10:
-0.10y + 2.3 + 0.25y = 3.95
Subtract 2.3 to both sides:
-0.10y + 0.25y = 1.65
Combine like terms:
0.15y = 1.65
Divide 0.15 to both sides:
y = 11
Plug this into any of the two equations to find 'x':
x + y = 23
x + 11 = 23
Subtract 11 to both sides:
x = 12
So Sally has 11 dimes and 12 quarters.
