Shanice won 88 pieces of gum playing the bean bag toss at the county fair. That was 4 more than twice as many as Greg. How many pieces of gum did Greg win?

42

Step-by-step explanation:

Shanice =88

If greg won x pieces of gum, and 88 was 4 more than twice as many as Greg

2x+4=88

2x=84

x=42

first, you divide the triangle in two, tô form a retangle triangle. after, using pythagoream theorem:

18^2 = 14^2 + (x/2)^2

(x^2/4) + 196 = 324

x^2/4 = 324 - 196

x^2/4 = 128

x^2 = 512

x = √512

x = √2^9

x = 16√2 cm

i hope i you.

the given 6 = w/p is equivalent to 6p = w, where w is the total area of the walls and p is the area covered by a single can of paint.

knowing that 6 cans of paint will be needed, 6p = w becomes 6(6) = w = 36.   this tells us that the total area to be painted is 36 square units.
