Answer:

4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>,

Area of the triangle = 1/4 square meters

From the diagram,

Height = 2/5 m

<u>To find</u> : Length of the base

<u>Formula</u> : -

A = bh/2

Here,

A denotes Area

b denotes Base

h denotes Height

A = 1/4

h = 2/5

A = bh/2

Cross multiply,

A * 2 = bh

2A = bh

2 * (1/4) = b * (2/5)

(1 * 2)/4 = (b * 2)/5

2/4 = 2b/5

1/2 = 2b/5

Cross multiply,

1 * 5 = 2 * 2b

5 = 4b

b = 4/5 meters

Hence,

The length of the base is 4/5 meters.

How to solve |3+x| -5 = -3
Irina-Kira [14]
To solve for x, you first add 5 to both sides so it remains equal.

3 + x = 2

Then you simply subtract 3 on both sides.

x = -1

Substitute your solution into the equation and see it is true.

|3+(-1)) - 5 = -3

The equation is true, therefore your answer is: x = -1
