Base=x+7 Height=x Area=60. 60=((x+7)(x))/2----->60=(x^2+7x)/2

120=x^2+7x X^2+7X-120=0. QUDRATIC FORMULA: -7+/- SQRT(49+480)/2

(-7+/-23)/2... 8 and -15. -15 ISNT the answer because you cant have a negative length. X=8 Base=8+7---->15 Height=8

Let height be x and the base will be x+7

so 1/2×b×h=60
= x(x+7)=120
x^2+7x-120=o
so...
solving the eqn .... x=8

therefore height =8 and base = 15 !

Simplify completely quantity 4 x squared minus 7 x plus 3 all over x squared plus 5 x minus 6. quantity 4 x plus 1 over quantity
irinina [24]

Answer:

The answer is (4x - 3)/(x + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ (4x² - 7x + 3)/(x² + 5x - 6)

Factorize the numerator:

4x² - 7x + 3 = (4x - 3)(x - 1)

Factorize the denominator:

x² + 5x - 6 = (x - 1)(x + 6)

∴ (4x - 3)(x - 1)/(x - 1)(x + 6) ⇒ reduce (x - 1) from in up and down

∴ The answer is (4x - 3)/(x + 6) ⇒ the fourth answer

A basketball player made 17 out of 20 freee throws at practice what percent of the free throws did the player misss
Igoryamba

Answer: 15%

Step-by-step explanation: To find what percent of free throws the player misses we will have to write a percent equation.

For this situation the equation 17/20 = x/100 will work.

This means that if the player made 17 free throws out of 20, what percent did he make.

Solve for x.

17/20 = x/100

17/20 x 100 = x/100 x 100

1700/20 = x

85 = x

The basketball player made 85% of his free throws.

You want to find the percent of free throws he misses.

So you can simply subtract 100% from 85% to get 15%

The basketball player misses 15% of his free throws.
