Perimeter of a triangle = all 3 sides added together
x + (x - 4) + (x - 4) = 19
3x - 8 = 19
3x = 19 + 8
3x = 27
x = 27/3
x = 9 <==
G=gas
w=bottle of water
8g + 2w = 29
12g + 4w = 45
I'm going to use elimination to cancel out the variable w by multiplying the first equation by -2.
-16g - 4w = -58
12g + 4w = 45
-4g = -13
/-4 /-4
g = 3.25
Now plug it into an equation, any equation.
8 (3.25) + 2w = 29
26 +2w=29
w=1.5
Now to check, plug it into both equations if you want.
12 (3.25) + 4 (1.5)=45
39 + 6=45
One bottle of water is $1.50, while one gallon of gas is $3.25.
Answer:
The auditing book is not accurate
Step-by-step explanation:
25($12.5)+50($8)+125($10)+= $1,925
$312.5 + $400 + $1,250 = $1,925
$1,962.5 not= to $1,925
Answer:
5cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given area of trapezium = 31.5 sq. cm
Length of parallel sides = 7.3cm and 5.3cm
Formula to calculate area of trapezium is
1/2*(sum of parallel sides)*perpendicular distance between parallel sides
sum of parallel sides = (7.3 + 5.3) = 12.6cm
substituting value of area given and sum of parallel sides we have
31.5 = 1/2* 12.6 * perpendicular distance between parallel sides
(31.5 * 2)/12.6 = perpendicular distance between parallel sides
perpendicular distance between parallel sides = 63/12.6 = 5
Therefore perpendicular distance between parallel sides for given trapezium is 5cm.
