<span>2(a+b)=c
2a + 2b = c
2b = c - 2a
b = (c - 2a)/a
answer
</span><span>D. b = (c−2a)/2 ; distribute 2 to get 2a+2b, subtract 2a, then divide by 2.</span>
The method is to multiply
No.
Tom forgot about the area of the top/roof, the floor and roof are different dimensions/areas, making his method incomplete.
He needs to find area of Roof, Floor then times height.
You could do x=81 with the little line on the top (represents the number going on forever, and example is 0.818181818181818181818181818818181818 etc.)
