A=bh/2, h=b-5 so

A=(b/2)(b-5)

A=(b^2-5b)/2  and A=42 so:

(b^2-5b)/2=42

b^2-5b=84

b^2-5b-84=0

b^2-12b+7b-84=0

b(b-12)+7(b-12)=0

(b+7)(b-12)=0 and since b>0

b=12m

James has 3 pairs of running shoes for every 4 pairs of basketball shoes. If he has 12 pairs of basketball shoes, how many pairs
GaryK [48]
If James has 12 pairs of basketball shoes, then the ratio would be 3:4 which would stop at 3:12. Then the individual ratios would be 3:4, 6:8, and 9:12

So James has 9 pairs of running shoes
