Answer:

In 2012, there were 307,380 foreign born people in Indiana.

Step-by-step explanation:

If in 2012 4.7% of the 6,540,000 Indiana residents were listen foreign born and we want to know how many people in that state were foreign born in that year, we have to do the following calculation:

6,540,000 x 4.7 / 100 = X (the amount of foreign born people in Indiana in 2012)

30,738,000 / 100 = X

307,380 = X

So, according to this calculation, 307,380 foreign born people were living in Indiana in 2012.

The height of a triangle is 3cm less than twice the base. The area is 10cm2

Kamila [148]

Answer:

The base is 4cm and the height is 5cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a solve the system question. Call H the height of the triangle and B the base. The question tells us:

$H=2B-3$

and

$\frac{B \times H}{2}=10$

Sub the first equation into the second (as H is already isolated). You will end up with a quadratic equation - solve that any way you wish (e.g. quadratic formula). I've provided the factored form below which shows you the roots:

$\frac{B(2B-3)}{2}=10\\\frac{2B^2-3B}{2}=10\\2B^2-3B=20\\2B^2-3B-20=0\\(2B+5)(B-4)=0\\B= - \frac{5}{2},4$

In this question, we take B=4. You can't have a negative side length so the other answer is eliminated. Now sub the value for B into either of the original equations. I'll use the first, again because H is already isolated:

$H=2(4)-3\\H=8-3\\H=5$
