Step-by-step explanation:
the area of a triangle
baseline × height / 2
in our case
baseline × height / 2 = 60 in²
height = 6×baseline - 16
baseline × (6×baseline - 16) / 2 = 60
baseline × (3×baseline - 8) = 60
3×baseline² - 8×baseline = 60
baseline = x
3x² - 8x - 60 = 0
general solution to a quadratic equation is
x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)
in our case
a = 3
b = -8
c = -60
x = (8 ± sqrt(64 - 4×3×-60))/(2×3) =
= (8 ± sqrt(64 + 720))/6 = (8 ± sqrt(784))/6 =
= (8 ± 28)/6
x1 = (8 + 28)/6 = 36/6 = 6
x2 = (8 - 28)/6 = -20/6 = -10/3
x2 as a negative number is not a valid solution for a length in a geometric shape.
so, x = 6 in is our solution for the baseline.
height = 6x - 16 = 6×6 - 16 = 36 - 16 = 20 in
base = 6 in
Answer:
90% of people marry there 7th grade love. since u have read this, u will be told good news tonight. if u don't pass this on nine comments your worst week starts now this isn't fake. apparently if u copy and paste this on ten comments in the next ten minutes you will have the best day of your life tomorrow. you will either get kissed or asked out in the next 53 minutes someone will say i love you
Answer: y-4=0
Step-by-step explanation:
You are multiplying the 3x by 6 which means c is correct
The answer should be D.
The maximum amount she can add is 7 books and no more, so the first two are wrong. It’s also allowed to be exactly seven, which is why it would be a closed circle.
Hope this helps!
