Answer: y = 6 mi. .
______________________________________________
Explanation:
______________________________________________
Area of a triangle = (½) * (base) * (height) ;
or, A = (½) * b * h ; or, A = b*h / 2 ;
_____________________________________
Given: A = 24.3 mi ² ;
b = 8.1 mi
___________________
Find the height, "h" ; (in units of "miles", or , "mi" ).
__________________________
Plug in the known values into the formula:
24.3 mi ² = (½) * (8.1 mi) *(h) ;
_____________________________
Solve for "h" (height) ;
_____________________________
(½) * (8.1 mi) = 4.05 mi ;
______________________________
Rewrite:
____________________________
24.3 mi² = (4.05 mi) *(h) ; Solve for "h" ;
_________________________________________
Divide each side of the equation by "(4.05 mi)" ; to isolate "h" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "h" ;
__________________________________________
24.3 mi² / 4.05 mi = (4.05 mi) *(h) / 4.05 mi ;
→ 6 mi = h ; ↔ h = 6 mi.
→ h = y = 6 mi.

Answer:
<h2>A, B, D, E</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
2(2x + 1) = (2)(2x) + (2)(1) = 4x + 2 → A
<em>used distributive property</em>
2(2x + 1) = 2(1 + 2x) → B
<em>used commutative property</em>
2(2x + 1) = (2x + 1) + (2x + 1) = 2x + 1 + 2x + 1 → D
<em>used 2a = a + a</em>
2(2x + 1) = 4x + 2 = x + x + x + x + 1 + 1 → E
<em>used 4x = x + x + x + x and 2 = 1 + 1</em>
which expression is equivalent to 6-(-8)

Answer:
(x, y) = (2, -3/4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The point of the "elimination" technique is to combine the equations in a way that eliminates one of the variables. Sometimes this involves multiplying one or both of the equations by constants before you add those results together. In any event, the first step is to look at the coefficients of the variable terms to see if there is a simple combination of them that will result in zero.
The y terms have coefficients that are opposites of each other (4, -4), so you can simply add the two equations to eliminate y as a variable.
(2x +4y) +(x -4y) = (1) +(5)
3x = 6 . . . . . simplify
x = 2 . . . . . . divide by 3
Now, you find y by substituting this value into one of the equations. I would choose the equation with the positive y-coefficient:
2(2) +4y = 1
4y = -3 . . . . . . subtract 4
y = -3/4
Then the solution is ...
(x, y) = (2, -3/4)
