Question

dagne measures and finds that she can do a vertical jump that is 27.5% of her height. if dagne can jump 13.2 inches, how tall is she? inches

Explanation:

Step1: Define variables and equation

Let $h$ = Dagne's height. The jump height is 27.5% of her height, so:
$$13.2 = 0.275h$$

Step2: Solve for $h$

Divide both sides by 0.275:
$$h = \frac{13.2}{0.275}$$

Step3: Calculate the value

Perform the division:
$$h = 48$$

Answer:

48 inches
