Micah is 5 inches shorter than twice the height of Jasmine

Micah = 5 inches shorter than 2 x Jasmine

Micah = 2 x Jasmine - 5    (jasmine is 32 inches tall. Replace jasmine with 32)

Micah = 2 x 32 - 5

Micah = 64 - 5

Micah = 59

Micah is 59 inches tall

Answer: Micah is 59 inches tall.

i.e. the height of Micah \(=59\)

Theerfore , the Micah is 59 inches tall.
