Question

The equation A=0.05bh gives the area of a triangle, where b is the length of the base and h is the height. Solve this equation for h.

Answer 1

A=0.05bh we divide both sides by "h"

A/h = .05b then we multiply both sides by 20

(20 A) / h = b

Explanation:

Answer 2

You would divide both sides by 0.05b, so that you would get h = A/0.05b

Explanation:

SInce you are trying to isolate the variable, and the variable is being multiplied by 0.05b, you would simply do the opposite, or divide, in order to get h by itself.
