Shauna is 10 inches shorter than ryan. together their heights total 140 inches. how tall is each person?

Shauna is 65 inches tall and Ryan is 75 inches tall.

Let the height of:

Shauna be represented with s

Ryan be represented with r.

Sum of their heights : s + r = 140

The equation that represents Shauna's height : r - 10

Substitute for Shauna's height in the first equation:

r - 10 + r = 140

Solve for r

2r = 150

r = 75 inches

Substitute for r in the first equation

75 + s = 140

s = 140 - 75

s = 65 inches

Ryan: 75

Shauna: 65

Step-by-step explanation:

x = ryan's height

x - 10 = shauna's height

x + (x - 10) = 140

2x - 10 = 140

2x = 150

x = 75

see attached graph

multiply length by height. multiply the length by the height, and then double the product. work out 10 x 10 results = 100 square inches, then work out 100 x 2 = 200. the answer is 200 square inches.
