Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

b1 = 13

b2 = ?

h = 6

Area = 120

Formula

Area = (b1 + b2) * h/2         Multiply by 2

2Area = (b1 + b2)*h           Divide by h

2Area/h = b1 + b2              Subtract b1 from both sides

2Area/h - b1 = b2

Solution

2*120 / 6 - 13 = b2

40 - 13 = b2

b2 = 27

It is always handy to solve an equation in the form that finds the unknown on one side. It makes the solution much easier.

5 sweets cost 30p altogether, how much do 7 sweets cost?
Nezavi [6.7K]
The best way to find out what 7 sweets cost, firstly, you should find out what one sweet would cost. You have 5 sweets, with a total cost of 30p. You should divide 30 by 5, giving you 6p per sweet. To get the cost of 7 sweets, you have to multiply 6p by 7, giving you 42p. Therefore, the cost of 7 sweets is 42p. Hope this helps :)

1. We can use division to solve real life problems, such as:
iren2701 [21]
Well, let's look at the answer choices.
A) If you want to fond the total cost of two sweaters you would add, not divide. So this isn't it.
B) To find out how much older someone is you would subtract. So this isn't it either.
C) To find out how many desks are needed you would multiply, since you know you need 3 rows of desks with 7 students each (3 x 7). Again, not it.
D) To find out how many pencils each student would get, you'd divide. You would divide 56 by 9. So your answer is D.
