L=2W-5
A=L×W
A=150
(2W-5)×W=150
2W^2-5W=150
2W^2-5W-150=0
(2W+15)(W-10)=0
W=-15/2 answer not plausible
W=10
L=2W-5
L=2 (10)-5
L=20-5

Answer:

<h2>For the first triangle, <u>x equals 22cm.</u></h2>

Here's how:-

x is the altitude or height of the triangle. To find it, we can use the Pythagoras theorem:-

altitude^{2} + base^{2} = hypotenuse^{2}

The base is 120cm and the hypotenuse is 122cm

Putting this in the equation, we get:-

altitude^{2} + 120^{2} = 122^{2}

altitude^{2} =  122^{2}-  120^{2}

altitude^{2} = 14884 - 14400

altitude^{2} = 484

altitude = \sqrt{484}

<h3>altitude = 22cm</h3><h2><u>So, x = 22cm</u></h2>

What is the benefit of dividing out greatest common factors (GCFs) before multiplying?
Nina [5.8K]
Lets get an example, for this example lets use 24/30 x 30/60
Without dividing out GCFs  you would get 24x12 over 30 x 60 which is 288/1800
With dividing out GCFs you get 2/1 x 5/1 Which is 7 :)
