Answer:
12 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b represent the base
h represents the height
area of the parallelogram = base * height = 216 square inches
From the question'
b = 18 + 3h
Slot in the value of b
216 = (18 + 3h) * h
expand
216 = 18h + 3h^2
subtract 216 from both sides
0 = 18h + 3h^2 - 216
rearrange
3h^2 + 18h - 216 = 0
divide through by 3
h^2 + 6h - 72 = 0
Now, lets solve!
h^2 + 6h - 12h - 72 = 0
h( h + 6 ) - 12(h + 6) = 0
(h - 12) (h + 6) = 0
h - 12 = 0
h = 12
and
h + 6 = 0
h = - 6
Taking the positive value of h
Hence, the height is 12 inches
Lets check
when h = 12 inches
Area of the parallelogram = 18* 12 = 216 square inches .... correct
when h = -6inches
A = 18 * -6 ≠ 216 square inches
So height is 12 inches
Yesterday, Jake laid down 2/3 yards of duct tape on his tile floor. His friends wanted the line to be longer. Jake laid down 2/3 yards more duct tape. How long is the line of duct tape now?
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1. let l be the length of the rectangle
step 2. l = 2x + 4
step 3. lx = 390 yd^2
step 4. (2x + 4)x = 390
step 5. 2x^2 +4x = 390
step 6. 2x^2 + 4x - 390 = 0
step 7. -4 +- sqr(4^2 -4(2)(-390))/2(2) quadratic formula
step 8. (-4 +- sqr(3136))/4
step 9. (-4 +- 56)/4
step 10. x = 13yd, l = 2x + 4 = 2(13) + 4 = 30yd.
