Answer:

Stephen has 9 trees

Alice has 21 trees

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>At the beginning:</u>

Stephen = x trees

Alice = x + 12 trees

<u>At the end:</u>

Alice = (x + 12) - 4 trees

Stephen = x + 10 trees

Total = 36

Then

((x+12)-4)+(x+10)=36\\ \\(x+12-4)+(x+10)=36\\ \\(x+8)+(x+10)=36\\ \\x+8+x+10=36\\ \\2x+18=36\\ \\2x+18-18=36-18\\ \\2x=18\\ \\x=9

Stephen - 9 trees

Alice - 9 + 12 = 21 trees

A square is put together by two triangles. The hypotenuse is 11 cm and width of 8 cm. find the height of triangle?
Aleks [24]
You can use the pythagorean theorem. Make sure that you put the measurements in the right places though. Since 11 is the measure of the hypotenuse, 11 has to be c. When you plug in the information that you have, it should look like this:
8^2 + b^2 = 11^2

Square 8 and 11. 
64 + b^2 = 121

Subtract 64 from 121
121 - 64 = 57

The new equation is:
b^2 = 57

Now take the square root of both sides to get b by itself. 
b = about 7.5

Answer: The height of the triangle is 7.5

Alex makes ceramic bowls to sell at a monthly craft fair in a nearby city. Every month, she spends $50 on materials for the bowl
Mandarinka [93]
The answer is      p(x) =  25x - 50
profit = total selling price- cost
x = number of bowls he must sell to make a profit
if he sell 1 bowl he will make a lost
                2 bowls even up
thus he must sells 3 bowls or more to make a profit
