<h3>Answer:  9</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

The area of the parallelogram is equal to the base times height. The formula to use is A = b*h. The height and base are always perpendicular to one another.

The base is some unknown variable b. Multiply the base by the height 15 to get 15*b which is equal to the area 135

Therefore, 15*b = 135

Divide both sides by 15 and we isolate b

15b = 135

15b/15 = 135/15

b = 9

So the base is 9

Check:

area = base*height = 9*15 = 135

so the answer is confirmed

side note: we never use the value 17 at all. It is likely put in there as a distraction.

there are 3 people who work full-time and are to work together on a project but their total time on the project is to be equival
mina [271]

The problem express that the fraction of time worked by the three people need to be equivalent to one person working full time. This means that the fraction need to add up to one. We know one person works ½ time on the project and another works one third 1/3 time.

Given:

A = the amount of time that the third person needs to work on the job to add up to one

1 = ½ +1/3 + A

1 – ½ - 1/3 = A

To subtract the fractions put them all over a common denominator. Use 3 * 2 as the denominator.

1=6/6, ½ = 3/6, 1/3 = 2/6

A = 6/6 – 3/6 – 2/6

<span>A = 1/6 , The third person  must work on the project</span>

Answer:

She rewrote the problem without parentheses: x3+ 2x2 - x + x3 – 2x2 +6

Step-by-step explanation:

It looks like she didn't fully distribute the -

(x3 + 2x2 - x)-(-x3 + 2x2 + 6) :Original

x3+ 2x2 - x + x3 – 2x2 +6 :Changed

~

(x3 + 2x2 - x)-(-x3 + 2x2 + 6)

x3 + 2x2 - x + x3 - 2x2 - 6

x3 + x3 + 2x2 - 2x2 -x - 6

2x3-x-6

I hope this helps ^-^
