Well, first you have to work backward. You multiply by 2 from the area: 42*2 = 84. Now you divide 84 by 6 to get 14. That number is your missing base. To check if you are correct: 6*14 = 84/2 = 42.

Hope this helps,

If 42 is the area and the formula is bh1/2 then 42 times 2 = 6x to sold x we do 84 divided by 6 and x= 14 the height of the triangle.is 14

What is the solution set of x2 + 5x- 5 = 0? oss-355 S +385 o sus S* o {stay -S-345 , 30 O S=5+375 5+3/5 2 0 --375 -5 +385 2
jolli1 [7]

Given the quadratic equation:

x^2+5x-5=0

Using the general solution for quadratic equations:

ax^2+bx+c=0\Rightarrow x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

From the problem, we identify:

\begin{gathered} a=1 \\ b=5 \\ c=-5 \end{gathered}

Then:

x=\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{25+20}}{2}=\frac{-5\pm3\sqrt{5}}{2}

And the solution set is:

\lbrack\frac{-5-3\sqrt{5}}{2},\frac{-5+3\sqrt{5}}{2}]

Arc measure - Hello! Can you please help me and if you can explain the formula that would be awesome!
Ratling [72]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  88°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle MQP is called an "inscribed angle." Its vertex (Q) is on the circle, and its sides are chords of the circle. The ends of the sides intercept arc MP. The relationship between an inscribed angle and the intercepted arc is that <em>the measure of the arc is twice the measure of the angle</em>.

  arc MP = 2×∠MQP = 2×44°

  arc MP = 88°

The price of commodity a is 4500 and increases at the rate of $6 every three months. Commodity b costs $5400 and increases at ra
ivanzaharov [21]
Let x be the months and y be the cost.

Rate of increase of commodity A = 6/3 = $2 per month
Equation:
y = 2x + 4500

Rate of increase of commodity B = 2/4 = $0.5 per month
Equation:
y = 0.5x + 5400

Equating the costs,
2x + 4500 = 0.5x + 5400
1.5x = 900
x = 600 months
x = 600 / 12 = 50 years
