Okay i got lets work itAnswer:

<span>h≈4.874</span> <span>cm,b≈21.748</span> cm

Explanation:

<span><span>Atriangle</span>=<span>12</span>bh</span>

"The base of a triangle is twelve more than twice its height."

From this we can say that:

<span>b=<span>2h</span>+12</span>

So, if <span>A=<span>12</span>bh</span>, we can replace b with <span>2h+12</span>.

<span>A=<span>12</span><span>(2h+12)</span>h</span>

<span>53=<span>12</span><span>(2h+12)</span>h</span>

<span>53=<span>(h+6)</span>h</span>

<span>53=<span>h2</span>+6h</span>

<span><span>h2</span>+6h−53=0</span>

Use the quadratic formula.

<span>h=<span><span>−6±<span>√<span><span>62</span>−4<span>(−53)</span><span>(1)</span></span></span></span>2</span></span>

<span>h≈4.874</span>

(Ignore the negative answer—height can't be negative.)

<span>b≈2<span>(4.874)</span>+12</span>

<span>b≈<span>21.748
</span></span>

Lena [83]

Answer:

y'(t)=ky(t)(100-y(t))

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of y(t) at any time is the derivative of y with respect to time y, y'(t)

If y(t) is the percent of the population advocating war at time t

then 100-y(t)  is the percent of the population not advocating war

The product of the percentage of the population advocating war and the percentage not advocating war would be

y(t)(100-y(t))

If the rate of change of y(t) at any time is proportional to the product of the percentage of the population advocating war and the percentage not advocating war, then

y'(t)=ky(t)(100-y(t))

where <em>k is the constant of proportionality </em>
