In a square all 4 sides are equal, so when you cut it along the diagonal to make a triangle, both the base and the height of the triangle would be the same.


The area of a triangle is found by the formula 1/2 x base x height

Since the base and height are the same the formula becomes Area = 1/2 x S^2 ( where S is the length of a side).

The area is given as 0.72 square units.

Now you have 0.72 = 1/2 x S^2

First multiply both sides by 2:

1.44 = S^2

To find S, take the square root of both sides:

S = √1.44

S = 1.2

The side length is 1.2 units.

Answer:

y=-5x-36

Step-by-step explanation:

-66-(-61)= -5

6-5= 1

-5/1= -5

Y=-5x + B

-66= -5(6) + B

-66= -30 + B

-66 + 30 = (-30 +30) + B

-36 = B

Y= -5x-36

The system of linear inequalities x + 10y ≤ 80, x ≥ 30 and y ≤ 4 is represented in a graph below

<h3>Graph of Linear Inequality</h3>

The graph of an inequality in two variables is the set of points that represents all solutions to the inequality. A linear inequality divides the coordinate plane into two halves by a boundary line where one half represents the solutions of the inequality.

To solve this problem, we would require the use of graph which can easily be done with a graphing calculator.

x + 10y ≤ 80

x ≥ 30

y ≤ 4

The graph of the inequalities is attached below
