x + y = 52

x = y - 18

Adding,

2x + y = 52 + y - 18

2x = 34

x = 17

y = x + 18 = 35

Check: x+y = 17+35 = 52, good

Answer: 17 and 35

Let's say we have a triangle with sides called a, b, and c, and that b is the base. Our triangle has a height that we'll call h.
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

16.34 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Base of triangle, b = 3 inches

Height of triangle, h = 10.89 inches

Question asked:

What is the area of this triangle in square inches?

Round your answer to the nearest hundredths place .

Solution:

As we know,

Area\ of\ triangle =\frac{1}{2} \times base\times height

                           =\frac{1}{2} \times3\times10.89\\\\ =\frac{32.67}{2} \\\\ =16.335

As, we have to find the answer to the nearest hundredths place, hence the area of triangle will be 16.34 square inches.

One fifth of a number plus three times the number is equal to twice the number plus 42. What is the number
borishaifa [10]

Equation to find number's value: \frac{1}{5}n + 3n = 2n + 42

Number's value: n = 35


Explanation:

Let n be the unknown number for this problem.

One fifth of a number is the same as \frac{1}{5}n.

Three times the number is the same as 3n.

Twice the number plus 42 is the same as 2n + 42.

So, using the information we've gathered so far, we can create the equation that will provide us with n's value.

Equation: \frac{1}{5}n + 3n = 2n + 42

We can use this equation to find n's value.

You can subtract 2n from both sides to get the equation \frac{1}{5}n + n = 42, which is the same thing as the equation we were using.

Now add n and \frac{1}{5}n together to get 1\frac{1}{5}n.

After you do this, your equation should look like 1\frac{1}{5}n=42.

Now divide both sides by 1\frac{1}{5} to get n's value.

n = 35
