Divided 80 by my number, and then added 13. The result was 93. What was my number?

igor_vitrenko [27]

The number is 6400.

We have given that,

divided 80 by my number, and then added 13.

<h3>What is the expression?</h3>

An expression or mathematical expression is a finite combination of symbols that is well-formed according to rules that depend on the context.

Suppose the number is x

$\frac{x}{80}+13=93$

Subtract 13 from both sides

$\frac{x}{80}+13-13=93-13$

$\frac{x}{80}=80$

Multiply both sides by 80

$\\\frac{80x}{80}=80\cdot \:80$

x=6400

Therefore the number is 6400.

What is the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle below?

balandron [24]

$\bf \textit{height or altitude of an equilateral triangle}\\\\ h=\cfrac{s\sqrt{3}}{2}~~ \begin{cases} s=\stackrel{length~of}{a~side}\\ \cline{1-1} s=8\sqrt{3} \end{cases}\implies h=\cfrac{8\sqrt{3}\cdot \sqrt{3}}{2}\implies h=\cfrac{8\sqrt{3^2}}{2} \\\\\\ h=4\cdot 3\implies h=12$
