Question

If a hexagon is worth 5 and a triangle is worth 3, what is a circle

Answer 1

6 answer

Call pentagon p, circle c and triangle t

We have 2c + 2p = 2p + 2t + c

p = 5, t = 3 so

2c + 2(5) = 2(5) + 2(3) + c

2c + 10 = 10 + 6 + c

2c = 6 + c

c = 6

Answer 2

6

Explanation:

Call pentagon p, circle c and triangle t

We have 2c + 2p = 2p + 2t + c

p = 5, t = 3 so

2c + 2(5) = 2(5) + 2(3) + c

2c + 10 = 10 + 6 + c

2c = 6 + c

c = 6
