Answer: 14.86 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
A landscaper is designing a flower garden in the shape of a trapezoid. She wants the shorter base to be 3 yards greater than the height and the longer base to be 7 yards greater than the height. She wants the area to be 295 square yards. The situation is modeled by the equation …
IF X+Y=15. AND y=2x-3.
X + 2X - 3 = 15.
6 + 2 (6) - 3 =15
6 + 12 -3 = 15
18 -3 = 15
Solve for X.
WOO!
X=6 :D
Now try to see if anything else can be X.
7 9
8 10
you switch the division sign to multiply and put 10 and then multiply to get 63
9 80 then divide to get your answers
