Hi!

Please see my beautiful drawing to help you understand the answer.

14 + 30 + ? = 76

44 + ? = 76

If we subtract 44 from both sides we will get....

44 - 44 + ? = 76 - 44

? = 32

The length from his feet to his waist is 32 inches.

Hope this helps! :)

The length from Man's feet to his waist is 32 inches.

What are linear equation?

A linear equation only has one or two variables. No variables in a linear equation is raised to power greater than 1 or used as denominator of a fraction.

Now, the given total height of man = 76 inches

length from his head to his shoulders = 14

length from his waist to his shoulders = 30 inches

Let x be the length from his feet to his waist.

Hence,

total height of man = length from his head to his shoulders + length from his waist to his shoulders + length from his feet to his waist

Puttuing the values,

76 = 14 + 30 + x

⇒76 = 44 + x

⇒ x = 76 -44

⇒ x = 32

Hence,The length from Man's feet to his waist is 32 inches.
