Answer:

3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To relate the height and width of the door, we can write an equation, which is derived from what is given in the problem. If we define w as the width and h as the height, the words, "1 foot more than twice the width" can translate to:

2w + 1, and this is equal to the height, so

2w + 1 = h

Now, we are given the height is 7. We substitute 7 where the height, h, is.

2w + 1 = 7

We can subtract 1 from both sides and divide by 2 to isolate x:

2w + 1 = 7

      -1     -1

2w = 6

w = 3 - the width is 3 feet

Answer:

The answer is 3 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the height is 7 right. Then take away 1 foot since is said 1 foot more than twice the width. Then divide by 2 meaning twice. Meaning 7-1=6 6/2=3. There you go! Hope these formulas helped!

What is pi???????????????
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter

In other words: all the way around a circle divided by all the way across it.

The symbol is π (pi)

No matter how large or small the circle, its circumference is always π times its diameter.

π = 3.14159265358979323846... (the digits go on forever without repeating)

A rough approximation is 22/7 (=3.1428571...), but that is not accurate.

The difference between 7 7/8 - 3 1/4
Dima020 [189]
You could convert them into improper fractions first. 7 7/8 should become 63/8 and 3 1/4 should become 13/4. Then, change both fractions so they share a common denominator. I'll use 8. 
63/8-26/8 = 37/8, which is then converted into 4 5/8.
Hope that helped you.
