If the triangle is increased to twice the base and the height the size will increase by 48 ft²

<h3>How to find the area of a triangle?</h3>

The area of a triangle can be described as follows;

area of a triangle = 1 / 2 bh

where

  • b = base
  • h = height

Therefore, the total area of the garden is 16 square feet.

Hence,

16 ft² = 1 / 2 bh

Hence, if the the triangle is increased to twice the base and the height the size will be as follows;

area = (1 / 2) × 2b × 2h

area = 4 × (1 / 2 bh)

area = 4 × 16

area = 64 ft²

Therefore,

difference in area = 64 ft² - 16 ft²

difference in area = 48 ft²

Therefore, if the the triangle is increased to twice the base and the height the size will  increase by 48 ft²

HELP PRETTY PLEASE THIS IS URGENT NEED IN THE NEXT HOUR!!
zmey [24]

Answer:

(- 2, 6 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equations

3x + 2y = 6 → (1)

\frac{2}{3} y - x = 6 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )

2y - 3x = 18 ( add 3x to both sides )

2y = 18 + 3x → (2)

Substitute 2y = 18 + 3x into (1)

3x + 18 + 3x = 6

6x + 18 = 6 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

6x = - 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = - 2

Substitute x = - 2 into (1) and solve for y

3(- 2) + 2y = 6

- 6 + 2y = 6 ( add 6 to both sides )

2y = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 6

solution is (- 2, 6 )

ANTONII [103]

The approximate area of the park on the grid is: E. about 40 km² to 50 km².

<h3>How to Find the Approximate Area on a Coordinate Grid?</h3>

The number of square on a coordinate grid that is covered determines the area covered. We can make an estimate by counting how many of this square on the coordinate grid that is covered, then find out the area depending on how much square area each grid represents.

In the coordinate plane given, which shows a park, we are told that each of the square on the grid equals 1 k = square kilometer.

The number of each of these squares we can find that is covered by the park on the grid is: 48 squares.

Therefore, the area of 48 squares on the grid = 48 × 1 = 48 km². Since not all squares are fully covered by the park, we can state that the approximate area of the park on the grid is: E. about 40 km² to 50 km².

The backboard of the basketball hoop forms a right triangle with the supporting rods, as shown. Use the
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

9.14 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Assuming the diagram attached, is similar to diagram required to support the question,

From the diagram,

Applying pythagoras theorem

a² = b²+c²...................... Equation 1

Where a = 13.4 in, b = x in, c = 9.8 in.

Substitute these values into equation 1

13.4² = x²+9.8²

x² = 13.4²-9.8²

x² = 179.56-96.04

x² = 83.52

x = √(83.52)

x = 9.14 inches

Hence the distance between the rods is 9.14 inches
