the height of a desk is 11 inches shorter than the height of a chair. Write and solve an equation to find the height of the desk.

d=c-11

Step-by-step explanation:

d is desk

c is chair

The height of the d (desk) is always going to be 11 inches shorter than the chair. So subtract 11 from c (chair) and you will find d (desk).

If the chair is 13 inches ...

d=13-11

d=2

If the chair is 32

d=32-11

d=21

This equation will work with numerous numbers to find the size of the desk. If you want you can find the height of the chair as well!
