Find the area of an equilateral triangle with 12-inch altitudes

Mathematics

Nina [5.8K]2 years ago

\textit{height of an equilateral triangle}\\\\ h=\cfrac{s\sqrt{3}}{2}~~ \begin{cases} s=\stackrel{side's}{length}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ h=12 \end{cases}\implies 12=\cfrac{s\sqrt{3}}{2}\implies 24=s\sqrt{3}\implies \cfrac{24}{\sqrt{3}}=s \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\textit{area of an equilateral triangle}\\\\ A=\cfrac{s^2\sqrt{3}}{4}\qquad \qquad A=\cfrac{~~ \left( \frac{24}{\sqrt{3}} \right)^2 \sqrt{3}~~}{2}\implies A=\cfrac{~~ \frac{24^2}{3} \sqrt{3}~~}{2} \\\\\\ A=\cfrac{192\sqrt{3}}{2}\implies A=96\sqrt{3}\implies A\approx 166.28

bogdanovich [222]
To complete the table, just use the given equation to solve for the corresponding values of y. and i think the formula is wrong, it should be
y =  <span>25,000 • 0.95^x</span>

at x = 1
<span>a0 = y = 25,000 • 0.95^x
 </span>a0 =  <span>25,000 • 0.95^(1)
a0 = 23750.00

at x = 2
a1 = </span>y =  <span>25,000 • 0.95^x
a1 </span>=  <span>25,000 • 0.95^( 2 )
a1 = 22562.50

at x = 3
a2 = </span>y =  <span>25,000 • 0.95^x
a2 = </span> <span>25,000 • 0.95^( 3 )
a2 = 21434.38

Solve the following inequality using both the graphical and algebraic approach: 0.5 x + 3 greater-than-or-equal-to 2 x minus 1.5
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

d. x les-than-or-equal-to 3 Graph B

Graph B expressed as follows; The graph on the coordinate plane, a line goes through (0, 3) and (4, 5). Another line goes through (1, 0.5), and (4, 6.5). The lines intersect at (3, 4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is expressed as follows;

0.5·x + 3 ≥ 2·x - 1.5

Let y₁ = 0.5·x + 3, and y₂ = 2·x - 1.5, we get;

For x = -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

y₁ = 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6

y₂ = -3.5, -1.5, 0.5, 2.5, 4.5, 6.5, 8.5, 10.5

From the given data, the lines intersect at (3, 4.5)

The graph on the coordinate plane, a line goes through (0, 3) and (4, 5). Another line goes through (1, 0.5), and (4, 6.5). The lines intersect at (3, 4.5)

Please find attached the required inequality created with MS Excel

Therefore, we have;

3 + 1.5 ≥ 2·x - 0.5·x

4.5 ≥ 1.5·x

∴ 3 ≥ x

x ≤ 3

Therefore, with (typographical) correction, the best option is x les-than-or-equal-to 3 Graph B
