Given the triangle that has a base of five less than triple the height. The height is 2x+6.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

H = 2x+6 - the hight

3H = 3(2x+6) - triple the hight

3H-5 = 3(2x+6) - 5 - five less than triple the height

Area of triangle: A = 0.5BH

B = 3(2x+6)-5 = 6x + 18 - 5 = 6x + 13

H = 2x+6

So:

A = 0.5(2x+6)(6x+13) = (x+6)(6x+13) = 6x² + 13x + 36x + 78

A = 6x² + 49x + 78

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

The model for the temperature of the drink can be written as

$T=72-20e^{-0.08t}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For a cold drink in a hotter room, we can say that the rate of change of temperature of the drink is proportional to the difference of temperature between the drink and the room.

We can model that in this way

$\frac{dT}{dt}=k*(T_r-T)$
