for a normal triangle its (bh)/2 but this is a right triangle so you multiply the two perpendicular sides and divide it by 2
So what you do is go 5(3y+5)-4y=14 which equals 15y+25-4y=14 which turns into 11y+25=14 than you move the 25 over which equals 11y=-11 so y=-1 then you enter -1 in for y which looks like 5x-4(-1)=14 than you solve that which is 5x+4=14 than you move the 4 over and you get 5x=10 than x=2
x=2
y=-1
Answer:
The surface area of the prism is 108 square in.
Answer:
it will go up as all the groups will be removed from lower side reducing it's weights
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area A = 15square cm
Length L = x
Width w = x - 2
Area = L × w
15 = x(x - 2)
15 = x^2 -2x
x^2 -2x - 15 = 0
Solving by factorization
x^2 - 5x + 3x - 15 = 0
(x^2 -5x) + (3x -15) = 0
x(x - 5) + 3(x - 5) = 0
(x + 3)(x - 5) = 0
(x + 3) = 0 or (x - 5) = 0
x = -3 or 5
Since x can't be negative therefore x is 5cm
Length = 5cm
Width = 5-2 = 3cm
