Ok, I'm going to start off saying there is probably an easier way of doing this that's right in front of my face, but I can't see it so I'm going to use Heron's formula, which is A=√[s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)] where A is the area, s is the semiperimeter (half of the perimeter), and a, b, and c are the side lengths.
Substitute the known values into the formula:
x√10=√{[(x+x+1+2x-1)/2][({x+x+1+2x-1}/2)-x][({x+x+1+2x-1}/2)-(x+1)][({x+x+1+2x-1}/2)-(2x-1)]}
Simplify:
<span>x√10=√{[4x/2][(4x/2)-x][(4x/2)-(x+1)][(4x/2)-(2x-1)]}</span>
<span>x√10=√[2x(2x-x)(2x-x-1)(2x-2x+1)]</span>
<span>x√10=√[2x(x)(x-1)(1)]</span>
<span>x√10=√[2x²(x-1)]</span>
<span>x√10=√(2x³-2x²)</span>
<span>10x²=2x³-2x²</span>
<span>2x³-12x²=0</span>
<span>2x²(x-6)=0</span>
<span>2x²=0 or x-6=0</span>
<span>x=0 or x=6</span>
<span>Therefore, x=6 (you can't have a length of 0).</span>
Answer: Number one is C and number two is B

Answers:</h3><h3>
6 quarters</h3><h3>
2 dimes</h3>
================================================
Work Shown:
d = number of dimes
q = number of quarters
q = d+4 since she has 4 more quarters than dimes
$1.70 = 170 cents
10d = value of all the dimes in cents
25q = value of all the quarters in cents
10d+25q = total value of all the coins in cents
10d+25q = 170
10d+25( q ) = 170
10d+25( d+4 ) = 170 .... plug in q = d+4
10d+25d+100 = 170 .... distribute
35d+100 = 170
35d = 170-100 ..... subtract 100 from both sides
35d = 70
d = 70/35 ... divide both sides by 35
d = 2
He has 2 dimes
q = d+4
q = 2+4
q = 6
He also has 6 quarters
------------------
Check:
1 dime = 10 cents
2 dimes = 20 cents ..... multiply both sides by 2
1 quarter = 25 cents
6 quarters = 150 cents ..... multiply both sides by 6
(2 dimes) + (6 quarters) = (20 cents) + (150 cents) = 170 cents
This confirms the answers.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
$6932
Step-by-step explanation:
Let last year's sales = x. Since there was a decrease of 5%, that means this year's sales are 95% of last year's sales.
So, .95x = 6585
x = 6932 to the nearest dollar
