No it's positive since if you multiply both sides by -1 you will get 5m=20 & m=4
Another method -5m =-20, divide both sides by -5, you will get the same positive m =4
B=h+4, m=h-2 now we are told
b+h+m=11, using b and m found above in this equation gives us:
h+4+h+h-2=11
3h+2=11
3h=9
h=3 and since b=h+4, m=h-2
historical=3, biography=7, mystery=1
Answer: 12 sqrt(5)
Explanation:
First simplify:
= Sqrt(45)
= sqrt(9*5) sqrt of 9 is 3 so bring out 3
= 3sqrt(5)
= 2sqrt(20)
= 2sqrt(4*5) sqrt of 4 is 2 so bring that out and multiply it by 2
= 4sqrt(5)
= 5 sqrt(5) is already simplified
= 3sqrt(5) + 4 sqrt(5) + 5sqrt(5)
= 12 sqrt(5)
