10+6h=34 what does h equal?
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:  h = 2.125

Explanation:

Simplifying

10h + 6h = 34

Combine like terms: 10h + 6h = 16h

16h = 34

Solving

16h = 34

Solving for variable 'h'.

Move all terms containing h to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by '16'.

h = 2.125

Simplifying

<h2>h = 2.125</h2>

  • <em><u>48 percent of the solar energy is absorbed by the earth's surface, this translates to 71 percent of the energy which is absorbed by the systems of the Earth.</u></em>
  • <em><u>The remaining 29 percent is reflected back to space by clouds, atmospheric particles etc. </u></em>
