If, for example, you had x on one side and x on the other, then subtracting x from both sides "disappears" x. If no other power of x shows up on either side, then your equation either has no solution or is always true.
nshs = sshs+5
wshs = nshh + 6 = sshs + 11
So nshs + wshs + sshs = 3*sshs + 16
So sshs = 10, nshs = 15 and wshs = 21
Answer 15.
Answer:
As shown in picture, this is a trapezoid.
The area of a trapezoid is calculated by:
A = (base1 + base2) x height x (1/2)
To work out A, we need to find out base1, base2, and height.
base1 = YZ = 
base2 = XW =
Otherwise, the height (distance between base1 and base2) is 4 as shown in picture.
=> A = (3 + 7) x 4 x (1/2) = 20
Hope this helps!
