- Simplify:

The answer would be 6 because by adding the whole numbers, 3+2, you would get 5 and since the fractions both have denominators of 4, you had both fractions, 1/4+3/4, which gives you 4/4 or 1 whole. 5+1=6 and that's your answer.

Answer: the base is 28 inches. The altitude is 9 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h represent the altitude of the sign.
Let b represent the length if the base of the sign.
The warning sign is triangular in shape.
The formula for determining the area of a triangle is expressed as
Area = 1/2bh
The base of the sign is 9 inches longer than the altitude. This means that
b = h + 9
If the area of the sign is 266 square inches, it means that
266 = 1/2 × h(h + 9)
266 × 2 = h(h + 9)
532 = h² + 9h
h² + 9h - 532 = 0
h² + 28h - 19h - 532 = 0
h(h + 28) - 19(h + 28) = 0
h(h + 28) - 19(h + 28) = 0
(h + 28)(h - 19) = 0
h = 19 or h = - 28
Since the height cannot be negative, then h = 19
b = h + 9 = 10 + 9
b = 28
The answer is actually d lol the idiot above me was right
