Step-by-step explanation:
2x-y=8
x+y=20
------------
3x=28
×=28÷3=9.3
so
9.3+y=20
y=20-9.3
y=20.7
Answer:
Base = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle can be calculated as:
Area = 0.5 x Base x Height
The values of the area and the height are given in order to find the length.
A= 52 in^2
Height= 13
First we have to find the base or the length. Using the values above we can set up the equation as:
1. 52= (0.5)(13)(b)
2. 52/0.5(13)
3. b=8
Answer: The length of the guitar or the base would be 8 inches.
I hope this helps and for future problems regarding this topic use the formula above!!
Formula: 0.5 x Base x Height
The answer is 5. Work backwards: first add 7 to 9, then divide by 2, then subtract 3.
9+7=16
16/2=8
8-3=5
Cross Check:
5+3=8
8*2=16
16-7=9
Final Answer: 5
