How do i solve this?

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

The area of this figure can be found by the formula A = (wh) + 0.5(bh). If Marcie wants the total area to be larger than a specified value, she can use the formula A > (wh)+ 0.5(bh). Rewrite this formula to solve for b. Show all steps in your work.

I did this A = (WH) + .5(BH) /.5 /.5 A = WH + BH /h /h A = wh + b /h /h A = w + b -w -w A = B B = A

are you sure?

undeadknight26 (undeadknight26):

my teacher asid she doesn't understand why that is my outcome...

OpenStudy (travisbrown372):

hold on

OpenStudy (travisbrown372):

If A > wh + 0.5bh, isplate the term containing b to get A - wh > 0.5bh so now double both sides and 2(A - wh) > bh, now divide by h and 2(A - wh)/h > b or b < 2(A - wh)/h
