Answer 1

Answer:

Subtract 63.5 from both sides. The answer is 6.5 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation:

70 = x + 63.5

Where x is the number of inches Mary needs to grow to be the same height as Tonya

Subtract 63.5 on both sides:

70 = x + 63.5

-63.5    -63.5

6.5 = x

Therefore, Tonya is 6.5 inches taller than Mary.
