Answer:

The height of triangle EFG is 9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

Find the area of a square ABCD

The area of a square is equal to

A=b^2

where

b is the length side of the square

we have

b=AB=6\ units

substitute

A=6^2=36\ units^2

step 2

Find the height of triangle EFG

The area of triangle EFG is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)

where

b is the base of triangle

h is the height of triangle

we have

b=EG=8\ units

A=36\ units^2 ---> area of triangle EFG is the same that the area of square ABCD

substitute the given values in the formula

36=\frac{1}{2}(8)(h)

solve for h

36=4h\\h=9\ units

therefore

The height of triangle EFG is 9 units

Myra combined the like terms in the algebraic expression correctly.
olga55 [171]

The answer would be the first one, combining 8 and -2

This is because the 2 like terms are 8x^2 and -2x^2. You can get this by looking in the problem. There are 2 terms with x^2 which means we have to combine them. One of them is 8x^2 (the 1st one) and the other is -2x^2 (since it says 7-2x^2)

If you combine these you will get 6x^2 [8+(-2)=6]
