<span>(x + 5 1/2) 0.75= 5/8<span>
Convert 0.75 into a fraction
</span></span><span>(x + 5 1/2) 3/4= 5/8
Use distributive property
3/4x + 5 1/2*3/4 = 5/8
Convert 5 1/2 into improper fraction
3/4x + 11/2*3/4 = 5/8
Multiply
3/4x + 33/8 = 5/8
Subtract 33/8 from both sides
3/4x = 5/8 - 33/8
Subtract the numerators but NOT the denominators
3/4x = -28/8
Divide 3/4 on both sides
x = -28/8 divided by 3/4
Convert the division sign to multiplication while flipping the fraction 3/4 to 4/3
x = -28/8 * 4/3
Multiply
Final Answer: x = -112/24 or -4 16/24 or -4 4/6 or -4 2/3 *All answers are equivalent to each other.</span>

Help pls thank you:)
Kryger [21]

Answer:

A= 145.12mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows us a Right angle triangle; so, I use Phythagoras' Theorem, to find length of the base.

c^2 - b^2 = a^2

27^2-12^2 =a^2

585. = a^2

Square root both sides

a = root 585

= 24.18677324

A= bxh/2

= root 585 x 12/2

= 18 root 65

= 145.1206395

A= 145.12mm^2 to 2.d.p

(Haven't rounded up in calculations until the end. Thus, using the exact values of root 585,for example. )

Hope this helps!
