Answer:

10 ft to nearest foot.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the Pythagoras theorem:

12^2 = 6^2 + h^2 where h is the height on the barn

h^2 = 12^2 - 6^2

h^2 = 144 - 36 = 102

h= √108 = 10.39

What's wrong with the problem: 5pints times 1cup divided by 2 pints = 2.5cups

lys-0071 [83]

I don't really know how the table works, but there are two cups in a pint, so 5 pints * 0.5 pints would be 2.5 pints, and 2.5 pints divided by 2 pints would be 1.25 pints?

One number is 8 more than another number, and their sum is 20. Find the numbers.

melomori [17]

Answer:

First number=6

Second number=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x

So the second number is x+8

So the sum of the two is

X+x+8=20

2x+8=20

2x=20-8

2x=12

X=12/2

=6

The second number will x+8

So 6+8=14

First number=6

Second number=14

What is the solution to this equation?<br> 6x + 10 - 2x= 7 + 23

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

$\boxed{x=5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to combine like terms in order to begin simplifying. This is done by subtracting 2x from 6x. Also, add 7 to 23.

6x + 10 - 2x = 7 + 23

4x + 10 = 7 + 23

4x + 10 = 30

Now, you have a two-step equation. Subtract 10 from both sides, and then divide by 4.

4x + 10 = 30

4x = 20

x = 5 is the final answer.
