Mathematics
1 answer:
Nimfa-mama [501]3 years ago
5 0

<u>Given:</u>

A triangle with a base length of 22 ft and a height of 20 ft.

<u>To find:</u>

The area of the given triangle.

<u>Solution:</u>

The area of a triangle is obtained by multiplying \frac{1}{2} with its base length and its height.

The area of a triangle = \frac{1}{2} (b)(h).

The height is the distance from the base to the highest point on the triangle and the length of the base is the base length.

The given triangle has a base length of 22 ft and a height of 20 ft.

The area of the triangle = \frac{1}{2} (b)(h) = \frac{1}{2} (22)(20).

\frac{1}{2} (22)(20) = \frac{1}{2} (440) = 220 ft².

The given triangle has an area of 220 ft².

There are two formulae you can use to calculate the number of apple trees and the number of conifer
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

  n = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

"By inspection" is an appropriate method.

We are asked to compare the expressions

  n·n

  8·n

and find the value(s) of n that makes them equal. <em>By inspection</em>, we see that n=8 will make these expressions equal. We also know that both expressions will be zero when n=0.

__

More formally, we could write ...

  n^2 = 8n . . . . the two formulas give the same value

  n^2 -8n = 0 . . . . rearrange to standard form

  n(n -8) = 0 . . . . . factor

Using the zero product rule, we know the solutions will be the values of n that make the factors zero. Those values are ...

  n = 0 . . . . . makes the factor n = 0

  n = 8 . . . . . makes the factor (n-8) = 0

Generally, we're not interested in "trivial" solutions (n=0), so the only value of n that is of interest is n = 8.

__

A lot of times, I find a graphing calculator to be a quick and easy way to find function argument values that make expressions equal.

Use the discriminant to describe the roots of each equation. Then select the best description.
Marrrta [24]
Let's find the discriminant of <span>x^2+9x+14=0.  Here, a=1, b=9 and c=14.

The discriminant is b^2-4ac.  Substituting the above numeric values,
                                9^2-4(1)(14) = 81-56 = 25

The sqrt of 25 is 5.  Thus, your polynomial has two unequal, real roots.

Off the point example:  If the discriminant were zero, your poly would have two real, equal roots.</span>

Find the distance between the points (-4, -2) and (5, 10). If necessary, round your answer to two decimal places.
NISA [10]
15, if you plot the points, then seperate the x and y into two seperate lines, you can create a 3,4,5 triangle to find the distance between the points.
