Question

Please help with 11,12,13

Answer 1

Problem 11

Answer:  h = 2A/b

------------------

Explanation:

We need to get h by itself. To do so, we first multiply both sides by 2. Then we divide both sides by b

A = (1/2)*b*h

2A = b*h

b*h = 2A

h = 2A/b

Problem 12

Answers:

• Equation:   (n+2)/5 = 14
• Solution to that equation:  n = 68

------------------

Explanation:

The number n is increased by 2 to get n+2

Then we divide by 5 to get (n+2)/5

This is set equal to 14 to get the equation (n+2)/5 = 14

Solving the equation would look like this

(n+2)/5 = 14

n+2 = 5*14 .... multiply both sides by 5

n+2 = 70

n = 70-2 .... subtract 2 from both sides

n = 68

Problem 13

Answer: Not a solution

------------------

Explanation:

We'll replace every copy of x with -3 and simplify

-2x + 5 > 13

-2*(-3) + 5 > 13

6 + 5 > 13

11 > 13

The last inequality is false because 11 is not greater than 13. Since the last inequality is false, this makes the first inequality false when x = -3.

Therefore, x = -3 is not a solution.
