We want to get x by itself
First we will multiply both sides by 6 to cancel out the 6 on the left
5x = 120
We then divide by 5 on both sides to get x by itself
x = 24
I believe the answer is B.
Answer:
6 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
A=b1+b2/2*h
Fill in the equation with what we know
21=8+x/2*3
Isolate x
Quick steps: 21/3=7*2=14-8=6
x=6
So a²+b²=c²
8²+15²=c²
64+225=c²
289=c²
±17=c
So c=17 or c=-17
