Answer:

18.25

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number

add 6:    (x+6)  

double it :   2(x+6)

result = 48.5

2 (x+6) = 48.5

x+6 = 24.25

x = 18.25

If edging cost $2.32 per 12-inch stone, and you want a double layer of edging around your flower bed that is 6 yards by 1 yard.
aksik [14]
12 inches = 1foot
1yard = 3feet
6yards = 18feet
Rerange the question:
If edging cost $2.32 per 1foot stone, and you want a double layer of edging around your flower bed that is 18feet by 3feet. How much will edging you flower bed cost?
Perimter:
2(18+3)=42
And since you want to double it; double the perimeter too.
42(2)=84

2.32(84)=194.88

Can you find the missing angles?
Nitella [24]
Every triangle has 180 degrees when you add there angles so you know that they will add up to 180
they are right triangles so the right angle has 90 degrees 
so for the yellow triangle 
90+45+x=180
135+x=180
45=x
we can tell where the purple and yellow triangle touch is 90 so 45+x=90 to find that angle which is 45
and the other one is 45 
so there are two 90 degree angles and three 45 degree angles.
I hope that made sence
