This is because simplifying the equation before solving it will lead you to the answer at a much faster rate. For example, in the given equation, the long way would be to distribute 2 to (x+3). Then, you transpose them and combine like terms. Until you get to x + 3 = 8. But if you simplify it first, you will see that it is straightforward. It will lead you to the answer right away which is x + 3 = 8. It saves you from the hassle of doing more algebra :)
A = 1/2 (l × w)
A = 1/2 (8 1/2 × 6)
A = 1/2 (17/2 ×12/2)
A = 1/2 (204/4)
A = 1/2 (51)
A = 25 1/2 OR 25.5 in
Answer:
There is no distance between them
Step-by-step explanation:
For a 30 ft electric line to be placed between two 20ft electric poles, it would take 15 ft of the electric line to go down to about 5 ft above the ground and another 15 ft of the line to go to the top of the second electric pole. This means that a total of 30ft (15 ft + 15 ft) electric line would be needed which is all the cable we have.
For this to be possible then the poles must be adjacent to each other (i.e. no distance between them).
