1) Formula: area = height * base / 2
2) Call x the height:
height = x
base = 2x
3) State the equation:
(x)(2x) = 49 in^2
4) Solve the equation:
2x^2 = 49 in^s
x^2 = (49/2) in^2
x = √(49/2) in
x = 7√2 / 2 in = 3.5 √2 in
5) Solution:
height = 3.5 √2 in and base = 7√2 in
6) Verification: area = (7√2 in) (3.5√2 in) = 49 in^2
Answer: height = 3.5√2 in and base = 7√2 in.
Answer:
100
Step-by-step explanation:
The population is changing linearly. This means that the population is increasing by a particular value n every year.
From 2009 to 2017, there are 8 increases and so, the population increases by 8n.
The population increased from 1700 to 2500. Therefore, the population increase is:
2500 - 1700 = 800
This implies that:
8n = 800
=> n = 800/8 = 100
The average population growth per year is 100.
