lawyer [7]

Answer:

<u>Substitute and solve for n:</u>

  • 42 = n² + n
  • n² + 2*1/2n + 1/4 = 42.25
  • (n + 0.5)² = 42.25
  • n + 0.5 = √42.25
  • n + 0.5 = 6.5
  • n = 6

Which of the following statements about its area will be true? Please help asap
never [62]

Answer:

the fourth answer

Step-by-step explanation:

this is because 6 x 10 is 60, and is you multiply the height by 3 it gives you 3(6) x 10 which can also be written as 18 x 10 which is equal to 180

divide 180 by 60 which will give you 3, this shows you that the growth from the original area to the new area is 3 times, so the ratio is 3:1
