The face of the triangular concrete panel shown has an area of 22 square meters, and its base is 3 meters longer than twice its

Elodia [21]

Answer:

The length of the base is 11 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the triangle is not shown; However, the given details are enough to solve this question.

Given

Shape: Triangle

Represent the height with h and the base with b

$b = 3 + 2h$

$Area = 22$

Required

Find the length of the base

The area of a triangle is calculated as thus;

$Area = \frac{1}{2} * b * h$

Substitute 22 for Area and 3 + 2h for b

The formula becomes

$22 = \frac{1}{2} * (3 + 2h) * h$

Multiply both sides by 2

$2 * 22 = 2 * \frac{1}{2} * (3 + 2h) * h$

$44 = (3 + 2h) * h$

Open the bracket

$44 = 3 * h + 2h * h$

$44 = 3h + 2h^2$

Subtract 44 from both sides

$44 - 44 = 3h + 2h^2 - 44$

$0 = 3h + 2h^2 - 44$

Rearrange

$0 = 2h^2 +3h - 44$

$2h^2 +3h - 44 = 0$

At this point, we have a quadratic equation; which is solved as follows:

$2h^2 +3h - 44 = 0$

$2h^2 + 11h - 8h - 44 = 0$

$h(2h + 11) - 4(2h + 11) = 0$

$(h - 4)(2h + 11) = 0$

Split the above

$(h - 4) = 0\ or\ (2h + 11) = 0$

$h - 4 = 0\ or\ 2h + 11 = 0$

Solve the above linear equations separately

$h - 4 = 0$

Add 4 to both sides

$h - 4 + 4 = 0 + 4$

$h = 0 + 4$

$h = 4$ ---- First value of h

$2h + 11 = 0$

Subtract 11 from both sides

$2h + 11 - 11 = 0 - 11$

$2h = 0 - 11$

$2h = -11$

Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{2h}{2} = -\frac{11}{2}$

$h = -\frac{11}{2}$ ------ Second value of h

Since height can be negative, we'll discard $h = -\frac{11}{2}$

Hence, the usable value of height is $h = 4$

Recall that $b = 3 + 2h$

Substitute 4 for h

$b = 3 + 2(4)$

$b = 3 + 8$

$b = 11$

Hence, the length of the base is 11 meters

For all values of x f(x)

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

f(g(5)) = 64

g(f(5)) = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that f(x) = x^2 and g(x) = x+3

f(g(x) = f(x+3)

f(x+3) = (x+3)^2

f(g(x)) = (x+3)^2

f(g(5)) = (5+3)^2

f(g(5)) = 8^2

f(g(5)) = 64

b) g(f(x)) = g(x^2)

g(f(x)) = x^2 + 3

g(f(5)) = 5^2 +3

g(f(5)) = 25 + 3

g(f(5)) = 28

Hence the value of g(f(5)) is 28

X + 3 = -1 Prove x Need help I need to see work. Don’t understand this problem.

raketka [301]

Answer:

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

X needs to be a number that when 3 is added to it, becomes -1. So, adding 3 to -4 gives you -1, therefore, x=-4. Hope this helped!
