Answer: 7in

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula: A=2(wl+hl+hw)

Solve for h;

Let's begin by dividing by 2.

\frac{A}{2}=wl+hl+hw

Subtract wl because it's the only term that doesn't have h.

\frac{A}{2}-wl=hl+hw

Plug your values into the formula.

\frac{286in^2}{2}-(5in)(9in) =h(9in)+h(5in)\\143in^2-45in^2=9inh+5inh\\98in^2=14inh

Divide by 14 to isolate h.

\frac{98in^2}{14in}=h

7in=h

What is one ninth plus two thirds simplified
GREYUIT [131]
7/9. 1/9 plus 2/3. You have to get the lest common denominator, so change 3 to 9 by multiplying it by three. Remember, you have to do the same thing you do to the denominator to the numerator. So, 2/3 would be 6/9. 6/9 plus 1/9 is easy, basic facts. 1 and 6 is 7, and you put the nine under. You get 7/9
