Answer:
Given:
- area = 18 cm²
- base = 6 cm
- height = (h + 1) cm
Substitute the given values into the equation and solve for h:
expand using distributive property of addition 
:
subtract 3 from both sides:
divide both sides by 3:
<u>To verify</u>:
Half of the base is 3 cm.
If h=5, then the height of the triangle is 6 cm.
Multiplying 3 by 6 is 18.
This matches the given area, so we can verify that h = 5.
39
Divide 78 by 2 to get 39 and add in to the number
Each baker received 1.25 kilograms
Answer:
4000 gallons.
Step-by-step explanation:
One day's discharge at the mouth of the river is 2 trillion gallons and it can supply all of country A's households for five months.
Now, if there are 100 million households in country A.
Then, the amount of water an average household uses each month will be given by
gallons. (Answer)
Let the length of rectangle be L and the width of rectangle be W.
Since length exceeds the width by 25 inches, length will be
L = W + 25
Now the perimeter, P, is given by
P = 2(L + W)
Substituting L = W + 25 in the above equation,
P = 2(W + 25 + W)
P = 2(2W + 25)
P = 4W + 50
But P = 86 inches
P = 4W + 50 = 86
4W = 86 - 50 = 36
W = 36/4 = 9
Hence, width W = 9 inches.
Length L = W + 25 = 9 + 25 = 34 inches.
