Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay so the shape has an area of 60 square inches. The formula for the area of a triangle is A = b*h where A = area, b = base, and h = height
So we are given the value for A (60)
We are given the value for height (10)
So we just need to find the value of the base
So let's set this up as an equation. Input the given values into the area for triangle formula
A = B*h
60 = B * 10
So we need to solve for B. To do that we need to get B alone on one side of the = sign. B is being multiplied by 10 so do the opposite and divide both sides by 10
60 divided by 10 = 6
10 divided by 10 = 1 (don't actually put a 1 down, just drop it)
So we are left with
6 = B
So the base is 6 square inches. To test, put it in the equation:
A = B*h
60 = 6*10
60 = 60
Let's use q to represent the number of quarts needed.
you would have the following:
2q= 107-19
2q=88
q=44
44 is the number of quarts in a in the barn.
Now you have to divide that number by 4 to get gallons because there is 4 quarts in a gallon.
There are 11 gallons of paint.
the answer for x is 76.4. the way to find it is by dividing 458.4 by 6 to find x s value.
