Answer:
I believe that the answer is 95 meters.
Explanation:
Okay, so to solve this question, you must know the formula to solve for the area of a rectangle/square.
<em>Area of a rectangle/square - </em><em>l x w</em>
<em />
In this question, you can see the the width (72 m) and the area (6840 m²) is already given. What you can do in this situation is to use the opposite operator (division) to solve for the length of the rectangular field.
<em>6840 ÷ 72 = </em><em>95</em>
You can always double check to see if the number is correct.
<em>A = l x w</em>
<em>= 72 m x 95 m</em>
<em>= </em><em>6840 m</em>²
Really hope this helped. :)
Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x + 6) -5 = 16
You want to first add the 5 (*flipping the sign) over to the 16
making your equation ...
3(x +6) = 21
Then you want to distribute the 3 to x and 6
making you equation
3x + 18 = 21
Then you want to subtract the 18 (*flipping the sign) to the right side
making the equation....
3x = 3
Lastly, divide the 3 on the left to the 3 on the right making the answer 1
x = 1
51+2x+x=180
3x=180-51
3x=129
x=129/3
x=43 degrees
