Area=1/2 times base times height
note:bh=base times height

a=1/2bh
b=width

h=-4+2w
h=2w-4
subsitute
a=1/2w(2w-4)
a=1/2(2s^2-4w)
a=w^2-2w
a=63
63=w^2-2w
subtract 63 from both sdies
0=w^2-2w-63
factor
find what 2 numbers multiply to get -63 and add to get -2
the numbers are -9 and 7
so
0=(w-9)(w+7)
if xy=0 then x and/or y=0

so
w-9=0
w+7=0

solve each
w-9=0
add 9 to both sdies
w=9

w+7=0
subtract 7 from both sides
w=-7
width cannot be negative so this can be discarded

width=9

subsitute
l=2w-4
l=2(9)-4
l=18-4
l=14


legnth=14 in
width/base=9 in

80 POINTS + BRAINLIEST !!!!!!!!
Gre4nikov [31]

Solution:

we are given that

Clayton needs to reflect the triangle below across the line y=x.

And as we know the reflection of the point (x,y) across  the line y = x is the point (y, x).

Hence the new Traingle will be on the other side of the line y=x and position of x and y-coordinates of the vertices of the trangle gets interchanged.

Hence the Options that applies are:

C’ will move because all points move in a reflection.

The image and the pre-image will be congruent triangles. (Because reflection just changes the position of the trinagle not the property)

The image and pre-image will not have the same orientation because reflections flip figures.

24 divide by blank plus 5 multipled by 3 plus 2 equals 20
sineoko [7]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer would be 8 because the question would be

24 ÷ x + 5 × 3 + 2=20  right?

The first thing you would want to do is multiply the 5 and the 3 because of PEMDAS which should give you  24 ÷ x + 15 + 2 = 20.

15 plus 2 is 17 and then you would subtract 17 from 20 which would give you 3. So you know know that 24÷x has to be 3 and 24÷3 is 8 so x=8.

Hope this helped!
