Answer:

The sum of two numbers is 240. The larger number is 6 less than twice the smaller. Find the numbers.

----------

Let the smaller be "x" ; Larger is "2x-6"

EQUATION:

x + 2x-6 = 240

3x= 246

x = 82 (smaller)

2x-6 = 158 (larger)

A = 1/2(a+x)h solve for x

ankoles [38]

For this case we have the following equation:

$A = \frac {1} {2} (a + x) * h$

We must clear the variable "x":

We multiply by 2 on both sides of the equation:

$2A = (a + x) * h$

We divide by h on both sides of the equation:

$\frac {2A} {h} = a + x$

We subtract "a" on both sides of the equation: $\frac {2A} {h} -a = x$

Answer: $x = \frac {2A} {h} -a$
