Answer:
h=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms ( -2.5h )
1.8=-2.5h-5.7
Add 5.7 to 1.8 ( 7.5 )
Bring down -2.5h
the divide ( 7.5/-2.5 )
h= -3
We know that this is a right triangle, so one of the sides has to be 90 (indicated by the square on the corner) The angles of all triangles must add to exactly 180. Subtract 90 and 35 from 180
If we do that, we get 55. We know that the unknown angle is 55 now. Now, it asks us for b. We can pythagoras theorem which states that (a^2 + b^2 = c^2) We already know c (c is 20) It does not tell us 2 of the sides but we do know that the answer is either B or D.
The side opposite of 90* should be the largest. The size opposite of 55 would be the second largest one. The side opposite of 35 would be the smallest one. Using pythagoras theorem again, I can try plugging in both 11.47 and 16.38 with c^2 - b^2 = a^2
11.47:
400 - 132 =268 (sq root now = 16.37) this would mean that A is larger than B. B should be larger than A. Try the other one
16.37:
400 -268 = 132 (sq root = 16.37) this would mean that B is larger than A which is what we want.
Thus, 16.37 = B and the last option would be correct (D)
Hope this helps, give an honest rating for me please
Since ABCD is parallelogram these rules apply:
Since 
this implies that 
The answer is D.
Hope this helps.

The answer is D. The temperature coefficient should be -1,5 as the temperature is dropping by the hour. Furthermore the starting temperature is 72 degrees so that should be added to the final answer. Therefore you get t = -1.5h + 72
