A book contains the following recommend weight for kangaroos:" Give the kangaroo 120 pounds for the first 5 feet plus 5 pounds for every inch over 5 feet tall." Using this description, what height corresponds to the recommended weight of 180 pounds?

A 180-pound kangaroo's recommended height is 6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 120-pound kangaroo is 5 feet tall and for every inch over this height we add 5 pounds to the total weight, we can make this formula. . Using this we can figure out the weight difference between a 120-pound kangaroo and a 180-pound kangaroo. After solving for x we get .

Now that we know the 180-pound kangaroo weighs 60 more pounds than a 120-pound kangaroo we can divide that weight difference by 5 to figure out the height difference.

After getting the height difference from the weight difference we can conclude that a 180-pound kangaroo's recommended height is 5 feet and 12 inches. Since 12 inches = 1 foot we can easily convert 5' 12" to 6'. This means that a 180-pound kangaroo is 6 feet tall.
