9 longer sticks were used.
This is how i get it.
1. change m to cm, 1m =100cm
2. add both together, divide by 16 =8.125. Which means 1 of the stick should more than 8, and 1 of the other stick should be less than 8
3. substitute the equation
4.(55 x 7)+(75 x 9) =1060
To calculate the area of a triangle, multiply the base and the height, then divide the product by 2.
7*8=56
56/2=28
Area=28 feet squared
Pretty sure its B but if im wrong please dont be mad.
Since ED and DB are exactly half of EB, we can set ED and DB equal to each other.
x + 4 = 3x - 8
Subtract x from both sides. Add 8 to both sides
12 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2
6 = x
ED = 6 + 4 = 10
ED = DB = 10
EB = ED +DB = 10 + 10 = 20
ED = 10
DB = 10
EB = 20
