Answer:

the height is 5 and the base is 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

X + 1 is the height and 4x + 1 is the base, so we can substitute this into an equation:

( x + 1 ) (4x + 1) = 85

{apply the distributive law}

4x² + x + 4x + 1 =

4x² + 5x + 1 = 85

Take 85 to the other side by -85 each side:

4x² + 5x + 1 - 85 = 85 - 85

4x² + 5x - 84 = 0

{Now we have a quadratic equation}

The roots are either -5.25 or 4. X must be 4 since it must be positive as it is a side length.

Substitute x into the base and height to get the answers.

X + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5

4x + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17

Therefore the height is 5 and the base is 17.

3 numbers are in arithmetic progression their sum is15 and their product is 80 determine the 3 numbers
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

2, 5, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

For starters, let us assume that the numbers are x-d, x, and x+d.

Where d is the common difference between terms.

This mean that we can say, from the question

x-d + x + x+d = 15

3x = 15,

x = 5,

This means that the terms are 5, 5-d and 5+d.

On the other hand,

(5-d) * 5 * (5+d) = 80

(5-d) * (5+d) = 80/5

(5-d) * (5+d) = 16

25 - d² = 16

d² = 9

d = + or - 3.

Finally, the three numbers will be 2, 5, and 8. On the flipside, their sum and product are 15 and 80.
