Algebra.Com's Answer #95281 by scott8148(6628)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! let x=Ben, so Eiffle=3x+36, Giza=x+164, Pisa=x-137, and Liberty=.5(x+164)+65\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x+(3x+36)+(x+164)+(x-137)+(.5x+82+65)=2264 __ 6.5x+210=2264 __ 6.5x=2054 \n" ); document.write( " |
