1.73 inches wide
____________________________________
h + h + 29
This will be simplified into 2h + 29
The shorter tree's height is represented with the variable 'h'
Because the taller tree is 29 feet taller, the equation for the taller tree would be 'h + 29'
SInce we're looking for the sum, all you have to do is add 'h' and 'h + 29'
If you have any questions, just ask. Good luck! :))
-T.B.
Step-by-step explanation:
area of the trapezoid = area of the 2 triangles +
area of the rectangle
i) area of triangle on left:
a = ½ bh
a = ½ × 2 × 9
a = 9 in²
ii) area of triangle on right:
a = ½ bh
a = ½ × 2 × 9
a = 9 in²
iii) area of rectangle = length × width
a = l × w
a = 12 × 9
a = 108 in²
iv) area of trapezoid = 9 + 9 + 108
= 126 in²
hope this helps you!
-s.
Step 1
distribute the -3
-3(y-5)=24
-3y+15=24
step 2
subtract 15 from both sides
-3y =9
Step 3
divide -3 on both sides
y=-3
