The equation above is the intercept form. Both a-term and b-term are the roots of equation.

These are the roots of equation. Therefore we substitute a = - 1/3 and b = 5 in the equation.

Here we can convert the expression x+1/3 to this.

Rewrite the equation.

Simplify by multiplying both expressions.

Substitute the given roots in the equation.


The equation is true for both roots.
<u>Answer</u>

We can represent the base as z and the height as 2z+6. We are going to use the formula A=1/2*b*h and solve for z
180=1/2*z*(2z+6)
360=2z^2+6z
0=2z^2+6z-360
0=2(z^2+3z-180)
0=(z+15)(z-12)
So z=-15 and 12 but it must be positive so then the base is equal to 12
When we plug this into 2z+6 we get 30 for the height
2(12)+6=30
