N can be 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 over or under the correct amount
Let x=height. then base is x+4. plug what we know into the formula for the area of a triangle
A=½bh
16=½*(x+4)*(x)
32=x²+4x
x²+4x-32=0
(x+8)(x-4)=0
so x can be-8 our 4. when we plug-8 in for x we get a negative height. since a triangle cannot have a negative side length we discard-8 and try 4. height=4 and base=8
Answer:
Sam initially made 45 bread rolls
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = total number of bread rolls made by Sam. He gives 2/5 of the bread to his neighbor. This means he gave 2/5 × x =
2x/5 bread rolls to his neighbor.
The remainder would be x - 2x/5 =3x/5
He gave 4/9 of the remainder to his cousin = 4/9 ×3x/5=12x/45
=4x/15
He has 15 bread rolls left
Total number of bread rolls = what he has left + what he gave his cousin + what he gave his neighbor
x = 15 + 4x/15 + 2x/5
Taking LCM of 15 and cross multiplying
15x= 225+4x + 6x
15x = 225 +10x
15x-10x = 225
5x = 225
x = 225/5 =45
Sam initially made 45 bread rolls
Answer: r=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Because if 42 equals 7 times r you just have to divide 42 by 7.
