2.5(a + 4) + 0.5a = 12.4

Mathematics
1 answer:
finlep [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a=0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

First I distributed 2.5 into (a+4) and got (2.5a+10)+0.5a=12.4. I then combined like terms which are 2.5a and 0.5a and got 3a+10=12.4. I subtracted 10 from both sides to get rid of it and got 3a=2.4. Later, I divided 3 from both sides to get a which comes out to be 0.8.

Hope this helps you :)

What is the perimeter of triangle UVW
lara [203]
Count how much spaces from one point on the end of the line to the other.

Line VU has 9 units
Line VW has 12 units
Line UW has: 

a² + b² = c²
9² + 12² = c²
81 + 144 = c²
c² = 225
√c² = √225
c = 15
Line UW has: 15 units

Now add all the units together to get the perimeter:

9 + 12 + 15 = 
21 + 15 = 
36

36 is your answer

hope this helps
