Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area (A) of a triangle = \frac{1}{2} × base (b) × height (h)

72 square inches = \frac{1}{2} × 18 × h

9h = 72

h = 8 inches

mrs_skeptik [129]

2 supplementary angles when added together need to equal 180 degrees.

Add:

3x-23 + 2x-12 = 180

Simplify:

5x -35 = 180

Add 35 to both sides:

5x = 215

Divide both sides by 5:

X = 43

Now replace x with 43 in the equation for angle b:

2(43) -12 = 86-12 = 74 degrees

Angle B = 74 degrees

Mr. Darcy could knit 4 ugly sweaters in 100 minutes. How long will it take him to knit 6 ugly holiday sweaters
Nostrana [21]
If you divide 100 by 4 which equals 25 that would be 25mins for one ugly sweater
If you times by 2 that equals 50
If 6=4+2 then you add 100 and 50 together which makes 150.
