Question

1) ''I am 10cm shorter than my father". Can you write this as an equation?

2) My hieght is 158 cm, then what is my father's hieght?

Answer 1

Let your height be x
and fathers height be y
the you are 10 cm shorther than your father
so, y-10=x



2. Given x=158
so x =y-10=158
so y=158+x=158+10=168
so fathers height is 168
