Let
x--------------> the third stone measure
we know that
the recommended height for the bench is ------> 20 in
20=[4 3/8]+[4 1/2]+[5 1/4]+[x]
4 3/8---------> (4*8+3)/8=35/8
4 1/2---------> (4*2+1)/2=9/2
5 1/4---------> (5*4+1)/4=21/4
20=[35/8]+[9/2]+[21/4]+[x]
<span>x=20-(35/8)-(9/2)-(21/4)</span>
x=20-(35+4*9+2*21)/8----->
20-113/8------- > (8*20-113)/8
x=47/8----------
> 5.875=5 7/8
<span>
<span>the
answer is 5 7/8 in</span></span>
The answer is b.
|2| = 2
|-4| = 4
4 is greater than 2.
48 = 4(x-2)
48 = 4x -8
56= 4x
14=x
x-2 = 12
one side is 12 inches long
B I’m pretty sure okay bye
