Let x=height. then base is x+4. plug what we know into the formula for the area of a triangle
A=½bh
16=½*(x+4)*(x)
32=x²+4x
x²+4x-32=0
(x+8)(x-4)=0
so x can be-8 our 4. when we plug-8 in for x we get a negative height. since a triangle cannot have a negative side length we discard-8 and try 4. height=4 and base=8
what are the answers in the menu?
Answer:17
Step-by-step explanation:
2x=5x−51
−3x=−51
x=

x=17
OBAN

| STANRAER
172-------------------------------------112
To read this table you have to draw a vertical from OBAN downward aa horizontal line from the 1st value of STANRAER. The intersection point show the number of miles.
So there are 172 miles & the consumption is 8 mi/gal,. He needs 172/8 gal.
Cost number of gallons needed x price/ gallon
COST = (172/8) x 0.83
COST = (21.5) x 0.83 = 17.845 ≈ $17.85 (1st answer)
We have been given that in triangle ABC angle A=45 angle B =40 and a=7. We are asked to find the equation that we can use to solve for 'f'.
We have two angles and opposite sides to these angles.
We will use Law of Sines to solve our given problem.
, where a, b and c are opposite sides corresponding to angles A, B, and C respectively.
The angle opposite to side b is 40 degrees and angle opposite to side a is 45 degrees.
Upon substituting these values in Law of Sines, we will get:
Therefore, our required equation would be .
