Recall that A = 1/2bh.
We are given that h = 4+2b
So, putting it all together:
168 = 1/2 b(4+2b)
168 = 1/2(4b + 2b^2)
168 = 2b + b^2
b^2 + 2b - 168 = 0.
Something that multiplies to -168 and adds to 2? There's a trick to this.
Notice 13^2 = 169. So, it's more than likely in the middle of the two numbers we're trying to find. So let's try 12 and 14. Yep. 12 x 14 = 168. So this factors into (b+14)(b-12) So b = -14 or b =12. Is it possible to have a negative length on a base? No. So 12 must be our answer.
Let's check this. If 12 is our base, then according to our problem, 2*12 + 4 would be our height... or 28. so what is 12 * 28 /2?
196. Check.
Hope this helped!
Answer: The other no. is 5
Step-by-step explanation: Let the other no. be x
x = LCM/First no.
x = 120/24 = 5
The other no. is 5
Answer:
We know that:
Energy released by fusion of hydrogen in 1 liter of solution A = 7.6x10^10 J
Energy used daily in a certain family home = 3x10^4 J
(you did not write the units, so i suppose that are the same in both cases)
Then, if x is the number of liters of solution A used, the energy produced will be:
E(x) = x*7.6x10^10 J
And we want this equal to 3x10^4
then:
E(x) = x*7.6x10^10 J = 3x10^4 j
now we solve this for x.
x = (3x10^4 j)/(7.6x10^10 j) = 3.9x10^-7
Then you need to use 3.9x10^-7 L of solution a.
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) no, because 50% of people who support candidate x are from California, but only 62.5% of all people in the study are from California.
b) yes, because 50% of people who support candidate x are from California, but only 62.5% of all people in the study are from California.
c) no, because 62.5% of people who support candidate x are from California, but only 50% of all people in the study are from California.
d) yes, because 62.5% of people who support candidate x are from California, but only 50% of all people in the study are from California.
The answer is D.
Answer:
1) Bigger sector = 168.8pi
1) Smaller sector = 56.3pi
2) Bigger sector = 529.9
3) Smaller sector = 176.6
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Bigger sector = 
×pi×15×15
= 168.75pi
1) Smaller sector = 
×pi×15×15
= 
×pi×15×15
= 56.25pi
2) Bigger sector = ×3.14×15×15
= 529.875
2) Smaller sector = ×3.14×15×15
= ×3.14×15×15
= 176.625
