an eqilateral triangle means all sides are equal ; therefore , base = side . the equation is ; base - area + perimeter = b - a + p = b - 1 / 2 bh + 3 b , and b = 2 . so , 2 - 2 / 2 h + 6 = 4 , and 8 - h = 4 . by plugging in the answers we can test the answers quickly ; then , 4 is the only possible answer . answer : c

average age of students of an adult school is 48 years . 120 new students whose average age is 32 years joined the school . as a result the average age is decreased by 4 years . find the number of students of the school after joining of the new students .
explanation : let the original no . of students be x . according to situation , 48 x + 120 * 32 = ( x + 120 ) 36 ⇒ x = 40 so , required no . of students after joining the new students = x + 120 = 160 . answer : b
