A triangular sail has a base length of 2.5 meters.The area of the sail is 3.75 square meters.How tall is the sail?

1 answer:

7 0

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

--------------------------------------
Find Height :
--------------------------------------
3.75 = 1/2 x 2.5 x height

3.75 = 1.25 x height

height = 3.75 ÷ 1.25

height = 3 meters

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The height is 3 meters.

Suppose you are driving to visit a friend in another state. you are driving 55 miles per hour. you must drive 440 miles total. i

Oliga [24]

Time=(distance)/(speed)
speed=55 mi/hr
Total distance=440 miles
Distance covered=275 miles
remaining distance=440-275=165 miles
Time taken to cover the remaining distance will be:
time=165/55=3 hours

Total time taken to travel=440/55=8 hours
if we are to use the equation given by:
55h+275=440
time taken will be found by solving for h, thus we shall have:
55h=440-275
55h=165
h=165/55
h=3 hours

Answer: 3 hours

How many times does the graph of the function below intersect touch the x-axis? y= -3x^2 + x + 4

inessss [21]

Answer:

2 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Well let's first graph the quadratic equation,

Look at the image below ↓

By looking at the image below we can tell that the graph touches the x axis 2 times at,

(-1,0)

(1 1/3,0)

Thus,

the parabola touches the x axis twice.

Hope this helps :)
