window sill height =9.75 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the equation for x.<br> x/3 = (2x + 3)/7
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

<em>Our answer is </em>x=9<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will rearrange so we have to divide by 7.

\frac{x}{3}= \frac{2x+3}{7}

Now we will cross multiply.

So...

x*7 \\3*2x+3

Our new equation will look like:

7x=6x+9

Now we have to isolate x.

So we have to subtract 6x from both sides.

7x-6=1x

and

6x-6x=0

Our new equation is:

1x=9

Now divide.

<em>Our answer is </em>x=9<em></em>

<em></em>

<em>Hope this helped!</em>

Lorico [155]
The amount avaliable for division into lots is
  25 ac - 0.35*25 ac = 0.65*25 ac = 16.25 ac
There are 43,560 ft² in an acre, so the number of possible lots is
  (16.25 ac)*(43,560 ft²/ac)/(25,000 ft²/lot) = 28.314 lots

The developer has enough area for 28 lots.
