N is an odd integer

The Next Larger is N+2

N+2 + 2N = -27 + 4N

3N + 2 = 4N - 27

0 = 4N - 27 - 3N - 2

0 = N - 29

N = 29

They are 29 and 31.

31 + 2(29) = 4(29) - 27

31 + 58 = 89 = 116 - 27  yes it works

A rectangle as an area of 240 square ft the base is 15 what is the height of the rectangle
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there,

The formula for the area of a rectangle is A = b*h.

So, let's start out by plugging in what we know.

240 = 15h

Now, solve for h by dividing both sides by 15

h = 16

So, the height of the rectangle is 16 ft

Hope this helps! Stay safe!

ABCD is a trapezoid.<br> What is the area of trapezoid?
lana [24]
Let h represent the height of the trapezoid, the perpendicular distance between AB and DC. Then the area of the trapezoid is
  Area = (1/2)(AB + DC)·h
We are given a relationship between AB and DC, so we can write
  Area = (1/2)(AB + AB/4)·h = (5/8)AB·h

The given dimensions let us determine the area of ∆BCE to be
  Area ∆BCE = (1/2)(5 cm)(12 cm) = 30 cm²

The total area of the trapezoid is also the sum of the areas ...
  Area = Area ∆BCE + Area ∆ABE + Area ∆DCE
Since AE = 1/3(AD), the perpendicular distance from E to AB will be h/3. The areas of the two smaller triangles can be computed as
  Area ∆ABE = (1/2)(AB)·h/3 = (1/6)AB·h
  Area ∆DCE = (1/2)(DC)·(2/3)h = (1/2)(AB/4)·(2/3)h = (1/12)AB·h

Putting all of the above into the equation for the total area of the trapezoid, we have
  Area = (5/8)AB·h = 30 cm² + (1/6)AB·h + (1/12)AB·h
  (5/8 -1/6 -1/12)AB·h = 30 cm²
  AB·h = (30 cm²)/(3/8) = 80 cm²

Then the area of the trapezoid is
  Area = (5/8)AB·h = (5/8)·80 cm² = 50 cm²

Kevin is 3 times as old as Daniel. 4 years ago, Kevin was 5 times as old as Daniel.
DochEvi [55]
X is Kevin; Y is Dan

X = 3Y

X - 4 = 5(Y - 4)


3Y - 4 = 5(Y - 4)   
3Y - 4 = 5Y - 20
     + 4         +4
4 cancels each other out.
     3Y = 5Y - 16
     - 5   -5
5 cancels each other out.
    -2Y = -16  
    /2       /2     
       Y = 8 

X = 3Y;    
X = 3 x 8;

Thus,
X = 24;
Kevin(x) is 24
