The formula for the area of a triangle is A=1/2*h*b
Therefore:
(1/2)*4*5.5=11
The area of the sail is 11 feet squared

Area of a triangle: (1/2)bh, where b = base and h = height

(1/2) x 4 x (11/2) 
= (4/2) x (11/2)
= 2 x (11/2) 
= 11

The distance on a bike path between Westfield and Southborough is 46 mi. Tracey leaves Westfield heading to Southborough cycling
ipn [44]

Answer: 2 hr.

Explanation: Think back to rate of change. <em>d</em> = <em>rt</em>, <em>r</em> = <em>d/t</em>, <em>t</em> = <em>d/r</em>. In this case, we will be using <em>d</em> = <em>rt</em>. Mph would be <em>r</em>, rate, so you would categorize 15 mph and 8 mph under rate. <em>t</em> should represent the time each cyclist traveled. Tracey's and Emma's distance, <em>d</em>, would be the same as their mph, hence Tracey's being 15<em>t</em> and Emma's would be 8<em>t</em>. When you add Tracey's distance plus Emma's distance, you end up with 46 mi. Now, you need to combine like terms, which should look like 15<em>t</em> + 8<em>t </em> = 46. Add 15 and 8 to get 23, so it should be 23<em>t</em> = 46 now. Then, divide both sides of the equation by 23 and now you should have your answer, <em>t</em> = 2 hr.

Find the length and width of a rectangle.<br> Perimeter = 50<br> Side A = 3x + 2<br> Side B = x - 5
zmey [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2 * (Side A + Side B)

= 2 * (3x + 2 + x - 5)

= 2 * (4x - 3)

= 8x - 6.

We have 8x - 6 = 50, so 8x = 56 and x = 7.

Length of rectangle = 3(7) + 2 = 23.

Width of rectangle = (7) - 5 = 2.
