Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height = h
Let the base = 4h + 7
Area of a triangle = 1/2 * b * h
Area = 93 square inches
1/2 * (4h + 7)* h = 93 Multiply both sides by 2
(4h + 7) * h = 93*2
(4h + 7)*h = 186 Remove the brackets
4h^2 + 7h = 186 Subtract 186 from both sides.
4h^2 + 7h - 186 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve
a = 4
b = 7
c = - 186
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(7^2 - 4*4*(-186) ) /2*4
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(49 - 16*(-186)) / 8
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(49 + 2976)) / 8
x1 = (-7 + sqrt(3025)) / 8
x1 = (-7 +55 ) / 8
x1 = (48)/8
x1 = 6
There is another root, but it has to be minus and therefore cannot be used as a length. x2 = - 7.75
h = 6
b = 4*6 + 7 = 31
Check
Area = 1/2 * b * h
Area = 1/2 * 31 * 6
Area = 1/2 *186
Area = 93 which is what we were given so the answer is correct.
If the probability of her having the winning ticket is 1., which equals 100%, then that means she bought all the tickets, so 1000 tickets
The equation (1•2)^72 (72 20 minute periods in a day) would produce way more than 5 billion a day
(1) circumference of a circle = 2π.R
(2) area of a circle = π.R²
Area = 452.16 m² (given), so we can calculate the radius:
452.16 = π.R²
452.16/π = R²
143.92 = R² → R =√143.92 ≈ 12 m
Having R = 12, now we can calculate the circumference :
circumference of a circle = 2π.R = 2.π.12 = 75.41 m
