Just work this problem out backwards. First write out an equation.
(x+4)•3=30
Now solve :
(x+4)•3=30
3x+12=30
-12 -12
3x=18
/3 /3
x=6
Your answer is 6!
Hoped I helped!
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to get the area of a triangle is A=
so all you have to do is work backwards. 18x2=36. 36/4=9.
I got it wrong on khan academy and this is what it said....
In conclusion, point M represents a scenario where the mixture has the intended volume and has more than the intended percent of butterfat.
OK, let's try with no figure. We have an isosceles triangle sides s,s, and b.
Opposite b is angle t.
Draw the altitude h to bisect t. We have two right triangles, legs b/2 and h, hypotenuse s. The angle opposite b/2 is t/2 so
sin(t/2) = (b/2)/s = b/2s
So we arrived at the first part,
b = 2s sin(t/2)
The area of a triangle with sides s,s and included angle t is
A = (1/2) s² sin t
The product would expand to
This is a trinomial, and the only way to make it a binomial is to cancel out a coefficient using our variable 
.
So, we can cancel either the linear term or the constant term.
In the first case, we require
In the second case, we require
But must be a non-zero rational number, so this solution is not feasible.
