s=2Lw+2Lh+2wh solve for h

|dw:1346707425999:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does it makes sense to you?

OpenStudy (supermom):

not really but thats ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let me walk you through

OpenStudy (supermom):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

s=2Lw+2Lh+2wh can also be written as s=2Lw+2h(L+w) that's we factorized the 2h since it's common to both 2Lh and 2wh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now we can bring 2Lw to the left side of the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we have s-2Lw=2h(L+w)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you follow ?

OpenStudy (supermom):

yes sorry i was dealing with my baby, so then what?

OpenStudy (supermom):

divide by (L+w)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (supermom):

and then divide by two right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

simple as that

OpenStudy (supermom):

thank you!
