Answer:

a = \frac{14 - b}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule to know and follow is:

You can add, subtract, multiply or divide by anything so long as the same thing is done to both sides of the equals sign;

5a + b = 14

If we want to get: "a = ...", then we use the rule to isolate the variable a on one side of the equation;

Firstly, we subtract b from both sides:

5a + b - b = 14 - b

5a = 14 - b

Then, divide both sides by 5:

\frac{5a}{5} = \frac{14 - b}{5} \\\\ a = \frac{14 - b}{5}

¿Cuál es el área de un rectángulo, sabiendo que su perímetro mide 24 cm y que su base es el triple de su altura?
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

El área del rectángulo es:

27 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Consideración:

La formula del perímetro de un rectángulo es:

p = 2(altura + base)

Planteamiento:

24 = 2(a+b)

b = 3a

a = longitud de la altura del rectángulo

b = longitud de la base del rectángulo

Desarrollo:

sustituyendo el valor de la segunda ecuación del planteamiento en la primer ecuación del planteamiento:

24 = 2(a + 3a)

24/2 = 4a

12 = 4a

a = 12/4

a = 3 cm

de la segunda ecuación del planteamiento:

b = 3a

b = 3*3

b = 9 cm

Comprobación:

de la primer ecuación del planteamiento:

24 = 2(3+9)

24 = 2*12

Respuesta:

la formula del área de un rectángulo es:

A = base * altura

A = 9cn * 3cm

A = 27cm²
