Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x= base
one side= x-6
other side= 4+x
x+x-6+4+x = 43
3x=43+2
x=15 length of base
Explanation:
The method of solving "by substitution" works by solving one of the equations (you choose which one) for one of the variables (you choose which one), and then plugging this back into the other equation, "substituting" for the chosen variable and solving for the other. Then you back-solve for the first variable.
"1 x 1" means whatever you want it to mean. There is nothing that says the operation "x" should be multiplication. There is nothing that says that "1" should even be a number. I could, just to be a regular A-hole, say that "1" is shorthand for a set of elements, and "x" is just a nice way of pairing "1" with itself, and I can call this a domain for a function I am about to define.
However, if we are being totally serious here, "x" means the operation of multiplication and "1" is a commonly understood concept referring to the idea of a single thing by itself. Multiplication is a short-cut for lengthy addition problems.
So 3x4 is a short cut for 3 + 3 + 3 + 3, or equivalently, 4 + 4 + 4. That's pretty much it. How many times do I add up 3? How many times to I add up 4?
So when you ask what is "1 x 1", you are really asking How many times do I add up 1? Well, you add up 1 just 1 time. That gives you 1.
