Let g be the number of grandchildren, and d be the number of dogs. They both have only one head, so the number of heads is

g+d=33

Grandchildren have 2 legs, while dogs have 4. So, the total number of legs is

2g+4d=84

From the first equation (the one for the heads) we can derive

g=33-d

Substitute this into the second to get

2g+4d=84 \implies 2(33-d)+4d=84 \iff 2d=18 \iff d=9

So, there are 9 dogs and (from the first equation

g=33-9=24

Answer:

h = 19.7 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagoras Theorem

(Hypotenuse)^2 = (Base)^2 + (Perpendicular)^2\\\\(20)^2=(3.5)^2+(h)^2\\400=12.25+h^2\\400-12.25=h^2\\387.75=h^2\\

Now we take square root on both sides,

\sqrt{387.75} =\sqrt{h^2}\\19.69=h\\h=19.7\ ft\\

so the value of h equals 19.7 ft.

35

Area of rectangle

21m^2

Area of one triangle

divide length of 7 by 2 (3.5)

gives you length b (unknown side that is not hypotenuse)

then multiply by width of triangle (4)

3.5 * 4 = 14

and in this situation there is no need to divide by two, because you essentially have one full square from both the triangles. this only works when both triangles are the same.

add the area of the rectangle

14+21= 35

35m^2
