An ostrich that is 100 inches tall is 15 inches taller than 5 times the height of a kiwi. what is the height of a kiwi in inches?

just follow the steps:

100-15 since it's 15 inches taller

=85

85/5 since it's 5 times the height of the kiwi

=17

The kiwi is 17 inches tall

Hey there!!

Let's take the height of the Ostrich as ' x '

Height of ostrich = 100

Height of the ostrich = 15 inches taller than 5 times of Kiwi

Height of the ostrich = 5x + 15

Let's get this into an whole equation :

5x + 15 = 100

Subtract 15 on both sides

5x = 85

Divide by 5 on both sides

x = 85 / 5

x = 17

Hence, the height of Kiwi = 17 inches

Hope my answer helps!!

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≤ x ≤ 40

step-by-step explanation:

20 ≤ x + 15 ≤ 55

subtract 15 from all parts

20-15 ≤ x + 15-15 ≤ 55-15

5 ≤ x ≤ 40

this means how many more cookies he has to make

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies, but no more than 40 cookies; 5 ≤ x ≤ 40
