Question

Consider the following equation, bh+hr=25 when solving for h

Answer 1

1.) Distribute out the h: h(b+r)=25
2.) Divide out b+r: h=25/(b+r)

The answer is 25/(b+r)

Answer 2

Answer:

$h=\frac{25}{b+r}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation,

$bh+hr=25$

For solving this equation for h,

We need to isolate h in the left side of the equation,

We can write,

$h(b+r) = 25$    ( by the converse of distributive property ),

Divide both sides by b + r,

$h=\frac{25}{b+r}$

Which is the required equation.
