It looks like you forgot to attach a picture.
Since I cannot answer you're question fully, it will not be a complete solution.
The formula for the area of a triangle is 
.
Just substitute you're base and height values.
Hope this helps!!!
B) two real roots is the answer because it is bigger than 0.
So just use a calculator but here goes
3^1=3
3^2=9
3^3=27
3^4=81
3^5=243
3^6=729
and 3^7 is 2187 which is excluded
The values of x and y are 0.2 and 0.4 respectively.
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
The given proportions are.....
and 
From the second proportion, we will get....
Now, we will plug this 
into the first proportion. So we will get....
So, the values of x and y are 0.2 and 0.4 respectively.
You have shared the situation (problem), except for the directions: What are you supposed to do here? I can only make a educated guesses. See below:
Note that if <span>ax^2+bx+5=0 then it appears that c = 5 (a rational number).
Note that for simplicity's sake, we need to assume that the "two distinct zeros" are real numbers, not imaginary or complex numbers. If this is the case, then the discriminant, b^2 - 4(a)(c), must be positive. Since c = 5,
b^2 - 4(a)(5) > 0, or b^2 - 20a > 0.
Note that if the quadratic has two distinct zeros, which we'll call "d" and "e," then
(x-d) and (x-e) are factors of ax^2 + bx + 5 = 0, and that because of this fact,
- b plus sqrt( b^2 - 20a )
d = ------------------------------------
2a
and
</span> - b minus sqrt( b^2 - 20a )
e = ------------------------------------
2a
Some (or perhaps all) of these facts may help us find the values of "a" and "b." Before going into that, however, I'm asking you to share the rest of the problem statement. What, specificallyi, were you asked to do here?
