Base = x
height = x-4
Area = .5 * height * base
48 = .5 * (x-4) * x
96 = x^2 -4x
x^2 -4x -96=0
x = 12
base = 12
height = 8
48 qrts * 25 barrels per trip = 1200 qrts get picked up per trip
1200 qrts * 1 hr/7qrts = 171.43 hrs to fill all 25 barrels
171.43 hrs * 1 day/24hrs = 7.14 days
The equation is 2x+3=7
2x +3=7
-3 -3
2x=4
divide both sides by 2
x=2
the answer is 2
Hello here is a solution :
So the first thing you do is distrubute.
