Substitute the given values into the formula, and solve for the unknown variable.

Alla [95]

Answer:

$h=\frac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$A=\frac{1}{2h} (B+b)\\$

$A=21, B=2, b=5 ,h= ?$

We have to find the value of 'h'

So, putting the given values in the equation to find the value of 'h'.

$A=\frac{1}{2h} (B+b)$

Implementing the given values in the given equations:

$21=\frac{1}{2h}(2+5)\\\\ 21=\frac{1}{2h} (7)\\\\\frac{1}{2h}=\frac{21}{7}\\\\ \frac{1}{2h}=3 \\\\h=\frac{1}{6}$

So, the value of 'h' is

$h=\frac{1}{6}$

What is the solution set of -9x

klio [65]

Answer:

B. x≥-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, first you have to isolate it one one side of the equation.

First, multiply -1 from both sides.

(-9x)(-1)≥27(-1)

Solve.

27*-1=-27

9x≥-27

Next, divide by 9 from both sides.

9x/9≥-27/9

Then, solve.

-27/9=-3

Therefore, the correct answer is x≥-3.
